So I currently have a 10x5x3 pond in my backyard but want to have an alligator gar, rtc, 2peackock bass, and a large mouth bass. How much bigger should I make the pond?

Welcome aboard


I assume you live where it stays warm. If not the PBass won't survive. Gator Gar have been recorded to get over 5 ft. but the dimensions would be fine for the others.

Just in general i would go as large as you can comfortable make it. Your stocking options will increase all the way around then!
