I would think that you would also need to run a de-icer in the stock tank,
even if it's in the garage. But then again if you put a de-icer in the pond,
along with a bubbler you should be ok. Currently I have no ice on the pond
thanks to a de-icer, it was about 12 degrees last night. Oh, another
thing... If you find and decide to use a stock tank, look into a stock tank
de-icer. It's much cheaper if it doesn't say it's for a pond! ;o)

Most farm supply or feed stores carry them - here in Ontario TSC an Co- Op
farm supply stores carry them or can get them - look for a place that
carries cattle feed etc in Que.

I've got a pond (~800 gallons) with 13 goldfish. I live in Montreal,
Quebec
so leaving them outside in the winter is out of the question (the pond is
currently solid). At the moment I have them indoors in two aquariums
(one
30 gal and one 20 gal). Next year I fear the fish will be too big for
these
small aquariums so I was thinking of maybe getting one of those
Rubbermaid
Stock Tanks and Putting it in the garage for the winter. My question is
does anybody know where to buy one of these in the Montreal region??? Or
know where to buy a similar product?
