Does anyone else have any other type of creatures in your pon other than koi or goldfish?

What other types of fish can you keep in your pond?
What about tadpoles and frogs?
Any turtles?

I have adopted some tadpoles and hope they grow into happy healthy frogs around my pond at home.

Frogs are alot of fun. I've never put tadpoles in my pond though. The frogs just seem to find my pond by themselves.

I have a catfish living with my koi. I've never had any problems, all fish are thriving.

I put some tadpoles in the pond and they are bullfrogs now. They seem to be happy. Good luck.

Be careful that your bullfrogs don't eat your fish! Turtles will also try to take a bite out of fish, too. Native fish can carry diseases that koi are not resistant to. It's best to stick with the carp family in ponds. Never release pond fish into natural waterways. Enjoy, Gail

There are minnows in my pond, all three of them have gabusia[spelled wrong] as well as fat head minnows. Rosie reds have there own pond but they do well with koi and goldies. They are all none agressive and fun to watch.
