Point taken, I think I'll make all stations mobile, add to their duties the magical acceleration of rocks oxydization, and have them change the "batch" they're cultivating (basically they take new samples from different parts of Earth's oceans) regulary, I'll also increase the canal/people ratio. | |

In fact, you want to maximize the area of these shallow ponds in order to get enough oxygen. Of course, now you have to worry about sediment buildup, among other things. Please see the edit. | |
