Default Livewell question

I have added a live well onto the back of my boat. It’s mostly done. It’s rectangular, about 24” deep, and around 30 gals with rounded corners. The corners are close to 2” radius. Did I screw up by not making it more round. It’s too late to change but I’d like some feedback from owners with similar shaped wells as to how their bait held up. Assume an adequate water flow.

I haven't noticed the little crappers even pay any attention

Menhaden here require very round wells. I have only used round and not rounded corners. I guess it depends on which bait you're keeping.

Looks like it’s not worth worrying about. If it’s a big issue with bunker or shad I will let people know. I’m not in the position to snag or catch them that many times a year anyway. Considering the slow progress of my project I have much bigger things to concern myself with. Thanks.
