    I found these to be hardy for a pond and less expensive than KOI. I have had critters go "fishing" for them also. https://pangovet.com/pet-breeds/gold...ish-for-ponds/

    My bride and I are doing the mulch thing too, but not for a pond, but for young trees we planted earlier this spring

    I have had one about the size of yours for 4 years now. I'll take a pic when I get home and post it. A couple things from experience: Like the other guy said, don't get Koi, they will get too big. I went to the local pet supply store and got "pond gold fish". Snowed this past winter (in Florida) and they did fine. Also, I started out a fountain similar to yours but over time the algae would build up on the surfaces of it really bad. Could be a hot weather Florida thing and I have a fairly large external filter with ultra violet light for water clarity (which I highly recommend). So I ended up going with a fountain that the flow dumps straight in to the water without any surfaces for the water to flow down on. I really enjoy mine. The fish go crazy every time I walk by thinking it's time to eat. Two different times I put a small bass in mine and both times they jumped out and died. Good luck!!


    Have a good one and thank God for it!

    I like that. Great job!!
    There's lots of decaffeinated brands that are just as tasty as the real thing.

    I have had these show up on their own at times with the Bull frogs that find the pond somehow. A couple Ducks and a few snakes also over the years.
