| Pikes were considered at first but most grow too large and/or I would have to dedicate my whole tank to them and thats not what I want to do. Geos are a no cause I dont want to convert this to a sand tank. Basically I wasnt looking for more ideas I was just wanting to know what ya'll thought of this set up.
As far as the pond we are putting it on hold as of now. We arent sure if we are getting the house now and even if we do it has to be put off another year cause there are more pressing things to get done there. So unfortunately I need to wait. Luckily I didnt pay for the Koi but got them from store credit. They are going to go to Virgowolf and inhabit one of her ponds.  So I know they will have a good home.
