Do you have a test kit to test for ammonia and nitrites? If not, bring a sample
to PetSmart and they'll test it for free. I have a 165 gallon pond and 4 comets
(goldfish) are all the pond can support without being overloaded and constantly
recycling the ammonia spikes.

You are eventually going to have problems with ammonia in the water. That is
way too many goldfish.
