Nathad, someone more experienced and intelligent should respond shortly but FWIW here's my 2 cents.
When I was developing my pond I put in #10 of unsorted(consequently ended up with some CF, not really sure what kind or how many) FH. Then added YP, WE, and 40 HSB. You'll probably get a chuckle from this but I suffer from the "I think I know better" syndrome we all have from about the age of 5. My pond is only about 1/4 acre. Needless ta say but I will, the HSB eliminated ALL the slow, dumb(which was ALL of them) FH in a matter of weeks. Immediately called and whined to Dr Perca and was told "I wasn't the sharpest knife in the drawer" and then advised to add some plants and then SPS and BNM. and to remove around 30 HBS. I did and those forage species have spawned and thrived.
It's not hard if ya know what yer doin or listen to someone who actually does.
If this advice has already been posted, please excuse me as it took several hrs for me to complete this response. I am very busy and had to squeeze this in between lunch, Jerry Springer, Dr Phill, Judge Judy and re-baiting the minnow trap.
Good luck, Busy Bob-O
