Whole fish and wood chips will make compost!
The ideal ratio for composting comes in at abot 30:1 carbon
to nitrogen (on a molecular level). In the case of fish and wood, this
works out to about 3 parts wood chips to one part fish. The wood chips
also had sawdust mixed in. This was excellent, for the wood chips lent
porosity to the pile, while the sawdust lent a good source of bioavailable
carbon for the composting process.
