addictedtofish Banned Posts: 24 Votes: 0 Registered: 02-Mar-2005  | Hi everyone, my grandparents are starting a pond. They were wondering how many golfish and koi they could put in a 80 gallon pond? Are goldfish and koi cappatable?(spelling). They would preffer some of each. |

houston   Fish Guru You want what when? Posts: 2623 Kudos: 2462 Votes: 337 Registered: 29-Mar-2003 | go with a couple of fancy goldfish, with fantails...I'm just thinking though because of your location, be sure that you can stabalize the temperature in the pond, and keep it topped off...I tried fish while living in the desert once, and couldn't keep up with the topping off...best of luck, heidi michelle I see a lot of people who Got to have a piece of me I'd give the shirt right off my back If I had the nerve to say Take this job and shove it I ain't working here no more ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ "I've got a great ambition to die of exhaustion rather than boredom."

koi keeper     Moderator Posts: 3203 Kudos: 2033 Votes: 240 Registered: 29-Dec-2001  | Goldfish and Koi are perfectly compatible, but that pond is much too small for Koi. A few fancy goldfish would be very happy in that pond. I am hoping it is in-ground. An above-ground pond can get too hot during the day for fish. Goodluck  Koi Empty chairs at empty tables, the room silent, forlorn. |
