i agree with JHutch... just include alot of nooks and crannies for young ones to hide... if nessasary...
 
sweet thanks!
 
Plenty of rocks sounds like it would be OK. Maybe try to add the fry when the light are just about to go out.
 
Whats the fish community like in the U.P.?

I've been going to Iron Mountain in the summers for the past 25 yrs.
