Hi Steve, What size would you recommend for the fry ponds? I want three ponds. And what about after they outgrow that pond, what size will I need for a finishing pond? I dont plan on keeping over 20 fish. If the 60x60x6 is big enough for them I will keep that the same and make a 3ft deep pond for the fry. And yes it is Ga. red clay that we have here and what I am thinking is a pond 3ft deep will be hard to keep water in. How long would I be able to keep the fry in a 3ft deep pond. I would think it would have to cover a very large area for the fry to grow to any size. Keep in mind that I only have two acrea set aside for this project? I will be using a drilled well to keep pond full and will use city water to fill the first time, so I will have to have some sort of pump to get the colorine out of the water. I dont like chimicals and stay away from them if I can.
