I have not thought about caging the eggs (several strands on one brush pile). Is egg predation typically a big problem? I really do not know whether spruce hold up better than pine, but my guess is that they do. I have a surplus of both, but mostly spruce. The trees are from thinning trees we started planting 25 years ago. I am adding these to the new pond until the plants get going full bore. I have plenty of reeds and water lilies in my older pond.
