Anyone did McKinsey Solve Game?

hey all! I have been invited to do the game and I'm planning to do in tomorrow. I started preparing, but I just have some questions.
Does anyone have some excel sheets for data inputs and any advice on how to select species in Ecosystem game? I know it has to be based on the environment, but also on calories in/out, and they they consume... it just seems like a lot of stuff to consider so I must have been missing something? 

Also, if you have any other advice/strategy please let help me out!

I know it will be different but I just want to prepare the strategy for it
