As long as the pond doesn't freeze through they'll be fine, if they can survive a Midwest winter a winter in LA will be like club med

so far they are in my frontosa tank which is 100g 2 canister tank. So when will be a good time to put them in my pond they are currently still small? so far they are getting along with all 9 frontosa and stingray lol.
but why are they so aggressive to each other? and not the frontosa? should i put my drift wood in the pond? i have about 100lb drift wood 2 pc?

also do i need a airstone in the pond?
thxs again.

How bigs your pond, an they will be totaly fine in the pond depending on the size you proly wont need a air pump but its good to put a power head or something that moves the water so it dosnt get stagnent.

I forgot to say you wont need a heater out side at all

sounds good my pond is about 3ft deep and size of a kidney bean. so they can deal with the cold at night and winter in LA?

 

[dizcus]

also so they are hardy fish then? like gars for example? or even koi's?

why are they so aggressive to each other?

I've kept 5 lmb together all around 3-5" in a 100 gallon before. Wasn't a good idea, one of the LMB became the superior one.. he always nip and bit the rest of the group. For some reason, they don't get along =/ But if you put them in the pond, i think they will do better.
