What kind of freshwater fish can I keep on my koi pond?

I have koi, a catfish and some other pond gold fish, but what else?? Help me please!

How big is your pond? How many Goldfish are we talking and what kind of Catfish? You could consider Garra pingi pingi (basically a coldwater algae eater) as well as a very large group of Minnows (White Cloud, Rosy Red, etc.), or even some native fish, but again, this will totally depend on the size of your pond… A gallon estimate? dimensions? Anything would help…

    You can actually put several things in your pond. Plecos, Guppy, Swordtails… Try to make sure your fish of choice is cooler temp fish.

    Happy Fishing
