Gill, there's no such thing as a pond in England that can't support "Koi
or
Goldfish" - if you want to get into some of the fancier goldfish, it might
get dicey, but comets are going to be fine. There are good reasons to go
deep when raising koi, but it's not for the temperature.

==============================
Here in zone 6 I have several varieties of fancy goldfish that do just fine
outside year round. These are Moors, Orandas, water-bubble eyes, and
lionheads.
