How do you know which fish are best for your pond? There are so many and frankly, some are quite expensive. First, and sometimes forgotten in the excitement of a new project, is this simple guideline: Do not overstock! Too many fish will deplete oxygen from the environment too quickly. 

 
Goldfish are best for small ponds. They are easy to care for and seldom get larger than a foot. Koi are a nice choice but should never be raised in ponds less than 1000 gallons. With each new koi, another one to two hundred gallons of water ought to be added.
