I know a 180 filled with goldfish...crazy right?

How many can live in there though? How big do they get? I've seen an array of sizes posted online. I know they get big, but how big? Over 13x filtration so I'm ready to go!

I have 2 right now that are around 9" and still growing.
 
Keep in mind they will reproduce........... i have a tank full of them .. they are beauties... i use to keep them in our outside pond but i got tired of bringing them in before winter.. they look great in a set up tank...

Wow, how cold does it get where you live for you to have to bring them inside? Or is your pond just very shallow?

yes pond is shallow.. had to leave electric di-icer on all the time because snow built up over the pond...it never worked reliably.. no matter how many different ones we tried.......
