I am getting 20 more fish tomorrow. Hopefully that will help.
Those strawberries will take over whatever bed you put them in if you keep them watered. In the sweltering summer heat, as long as they stay in the shade, they will survive and continue to produce like tomato plants. The main way strawberry plants are murdered is by sunburn. They are bred to grow underneath other plants. They don't need much sunlight to flourish.

What plants you have growing look ultra spectacular. Just give them some room and you wont be disappointed. P.s. strawberries will grow year-round if you let them.

Hahaha big fish eat little fish! That's why they call them feeders. The bluegill will gobble up the mosquito larvae if they aren't overfed. Even if they are, they might just do it for fun. Because fish get bored too.
