Wanted to update the title of my earlier post could not figure it out so I made a new ones. Hope that okay....
Hey guys, drawing up plans for a circle pond 22 foot in diameter and 52 inch deep. Comes out to around 11,000 gallons. I am looking at some interesting fish and saw sturgeon were a thing in ponds. I have been looking online and saw some people were saying you can't keep Sturgeon if the water is going to get above 80 Fahrenheit. One I don't know that much about sturgeon. I do know that there are different types. Also, kind of looked around looks like it differently like bass where you want to buy small. I would also like to see if you got other suggests. Thanks and btw I am pretty opened minded at this point.

So a million questions on that lol. I know there are peacock bass (cichlids) and gars. What would be a good combo of these fish? Do they need to be kept in groups btw? Like two red tails, paroon, a shovelnose, 5 peacocks, Florida gar, and some good size koi? I would think some of these fish may not get along with each other. I know size is a huge factor. So what you guys think would be the best combo?
Thanks looking forward to hearing what some of you have to say.
