Good idea but it has practical flaws. When using the honey hole nursery be prepared in many ponds to have this piece of structure to be completely coated with dense filamentous algae to the point small fish cannot swim in and out of the wire box structure. A common problem in many ponds that have FA.

Also consider using several Ugly Trees as grouped together as a cluster. Good habitat structures researched to be long term and very effective.

Proper placement of structures. Think "Fish Cities".
