Are you planning on feeding the CC? They do well on inexpensive grain based pellets. If you stock the FHM (Rosy are the pink strain of FHM) first and wait a couple months before stocking the CC, IMO 1000 will be enough if you have proper spawning habitat in place.

IMO number of CC to stock depends on whether you will be feeding, aerating, regular harvest, etc.

Not a pro...just my 1 cent
