Again,

I really appreciate members taking time to provide feedback and advice.

The 2012 work was done by the owner / an amature. However, the overflow feature worked as designed skirting the dam and routing the water around and below. It's just a lower grass exit edge but it provides relief.

My BG were 1.5-3" in length. While I paid for 250, I'm skeptical on the count as I relive the day. Probably more like 150 but they all swam away so any mortality was delayed.

I do have a source for adult BG. I'll need to catch them but I can grab a Grandson and enjoy the day. If I put in 10, do I need 5, males 5 females or a few males get the job done?
