Fish Crazy
Rescuing the goldfish really got me into the idea of having a pond -- but I have to accept I don't have the space or financial resources for a big enough one for the Goldies and they will go to someone I've found with 80 Goldies in a large pond already --
However, I am fixed on the idea of a pond so will invest in a small one perhaps 4ft by 3ft and 2-3ft deep.
Please if you can give me suggestions on smaller fish which can survive winter outdoors in UK for a small pond -- I'd love that, whilst I continue my search.
So far I was only once told guppies can be outdoors but not during winter -- ideally I'd like to not move them around so maybe there are some hardy ones who can live outdoors and enter "torpor" (which I just read is actually what fish do rather than hibernate?)
