raising bullheads and gsf/warmouth

id like to have a forage pond for my flathead cat fishing and these types of fish not only live much longer on a hook than bg crappieor shad but they also can live in harsh conditions of water as they are the onlyones to survive in backwater ponds ect

anyways im wondering if they could spawn in a above ground pool? im thinking of getting a 15 foot round pool 4 foot deep would the bh's be able t spawn if i added something in the water for them? i know bh's like t dig into the dirt to lay their eggs but curious on what i could add to the water for them to be able to spawn and pellet feed

Your talking a large fish aquarium. You would need to change the water out often, to avoid them dying off. Don't really think that would work at all. In the end, thinking your just wasting your money.

i know people who havepools int heir backyards full of diff types of fish but not sure how much the up keep is and if id have t add spawning mats or something

Just keeping them alive is going to be a challenge, you're going to need perfect environmental conditions for them to reproduce.
