I've heard on several occassions that trying to maintain a good balance [predator/prey] in a pond can be difficult. Easy for stuff like bluegills to overpopulate a pond stunting their growth. Something you'd definitely want professional advice on. I'd guess that [stocking advice] would be readily available from biologists at F&G. Another concern would be excessive algae blooms and weeds taking over and deminishing water quality. Another consideration would be depth necessary to facilitate winter carryover of fish populations when/if the pond freezes over for long periods of time.
