We have a pond in our backyard with a waterfall and whatnot. We had goldfish but they have all since died (after oh... 4-5 years) and right now we have different types of koi which thrive in the pond. They get HUGE. Feed them well with floating pellets and they will love you. =) My favorite is the butterfly koi.
However, I'm not sure if there are blue herons in florida or something like it, but they will find your pond and eat your fish... So now we have to have a net over the pond so our fish don't get eaten. But yeah, we've never once had any problems with our pond.
