We have a smaller fish pond in our back yard that is run with a filter and has a pump with cascading water falls to help with water circulation. What are your thoughts about putting one or both of my large 12" common plecos out in the pond for the warm season and bringing them back in during the winter? I live in Maryland so it would be at least 6 months of outside living for them. I just wonder if it's worth it and if it's healthy for them.
