think it's big enough for one fancy gold?

"deck pond" (http://www.canadiantire.ca/assortments/product_detail.jsp?PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=84552444325 8138&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=2534374303517513&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=2534374303517519&FOLDER%3C%3EbrowsePath=1408474396669658&FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=1408474396669658&ASSORTMENT%3C%3East_id=1408474396670271&bmUID=1147017792508)

[dorkfish]

link still doesnt work. I have heard of people putting goldfish in containers that size but if it was me I would probably go with something smaller. just my opinion

[fIsHy13]

i think you should put two fancy goldfish in, thats 15 gallons each which is sufficient enough :)

[greendeltatke]

If you haven't already bought anything, may I suggest golden white clouds? They color up beautifully outside and do well in small containers.

[dorkfish]

well, I've already got the one gold in a 10g (seriosly, I was shocked when I found out they don't grow to the tank) so I was thinking him and either a school of right clouds or a school of rosy red flathead minnows.

This pond would be an Algae factory. There are other types of pop up ponds that are like this but opaque. I would go that route and not this one. If you want to try an experiment, try putting a glass vase outside on your deck for about a week or 2 and see how much alage it collects.
