Yes just throw the sheetrock in.
if it's 20 feet deep you should not see it, in fact you do not want your pond much clearer than 18 inch of visibility.
Lime does work, but it also adds a considerable amount of "fertilizer" and can cause a blume (sp) that you do not want.

fish will only use 4-6 feet of the pond, surface area is much more important than depth.

You can have about 100 pounds of bass per surface acre of pond..........so that's 10 10 pounders of 100 1 pounders..........you get the idea.

Jordan, make sure you establish the food chain before you add the bass, trust me on this............10 bass can eat a pond out a new stock of bream pretty quick.
