hey guys i am moving into a house next week with a large pond out the front, a very rough guess would be 2500 to 3000 litres. i want to put some fish in there to grow out but the thing is i want them to be large predators and at this stage i dont want to heat to pond. any suggestions on what fish? im thinking maybe barra?

thanks

lol yeah it may be due to the fact there coldwater fish that they dont come in , im not sure though, why not try some rays, youd have to heat it but two foot is well and truly deep enough for them, nice way to pay your powerbill if they breed laugh.gif
