Triploid Grass Carp will help if excess vegetation is the issue, but just watch out that you don't stock too many. It's better to understock than overstock.

As for aeration, unless you go the battery backup for night time running, I don't think it's worth the expense. If you had access to grid power that would be a different thing, even if grid power was within 1/2 mile of the tanks. You can trench in airline and run it a LONG ways underground.
