ANyone have photos of a good set up for raising them in converted LBC totes? I want to add bluegill every quarter but dont have the budget to pay for stocking, I'll be bucket stocking, but thought It would be smart to set up a tank.

Hardest part I thought would be keeping it cool in florida heat since itll be kept outside (in shade). Ideas for that?

I setup a intex pool from Amazon.
It has a drain built in and I run two box filters and a large air stone. I use it to raise certain species that I can only get as very small fish. Once they are a decent size I put them in the pond. It seems to help predation and you can really get them growing when they have no competition. I have a group of Carpintis I’m growing that I hope will make great pond fish for catching and eating.

Here’s a pic of some of the exotics I’m putting in the pond this April.
