Looks good, but I would not overload it right off with a bunch of
fish., as its going to take a bit of time for the biological portio of
the filter to come up to speed.......From what I have read and been
told it can take 4 to 6 weeks until the filter is up to speed, but
adding a few now shuld not be a problem.
What brand filter is that, A Hozelock Bio-Force or Laguna or other?

I've had a new pond that I've put in about 2 weeks now and it's about
time to put some fishes in it.
It's a 1000 litre item, 2 1/2 foot deep with a decent enough pump and
filter (and uv bit).
I'm probably going to just put goldfish in it, something hardy, but
I've had various suggestions.
Should I go out and buy a job lot of 10 - 12 all in one go.
or buy 5 - 6 wait a couple of weeks then add another 6.
Guessing fors and against for each.
For buying a job lot, they might not fight as much, but if one has an
infection, they'll all get it.
thanks in advance
