Air pump, to keep the water circulating. Heat is only required in
really cold, like zone 5, or less.

We have four. They were each an inch long when we bought them, now they

are a
foot long, and beefy! They are in a pond of circulating water which

holds,
combined, 165 gallons of water. The pond is hardside and is about 16

inches
deep. Can we continue to leave them in there? Is it cruel? What should

we do?
I doubt any of the fish places would want them since they are actually

feeder
comets.


Ask around........you may be surprised. In my area large goldfish of any
kind are in high demand.
