New to the group just wanted to say what's up

Welcome! Starting off with the big guns...no pea shooters here!! Hahah!!
A pond that size could have alot of fish...I mean alot.....and big fish too. If heating this monster isn't an issue, then out some Pacu in there....maybe a few Plecos...or a few dozen....

Haven't quite figured out a way to heat it practically but last winter the water temp in there only got down to 70.. I'm pretty far south

Damn...you are lucky...I guess the question really should be, how you gonna cool it? Lol.
If that were my setup....I would so totally build a bridge and a dock....
Jealous.

Welcome!

That pool has a lot of potential. I would surround the entire perimeter of the pool with river stones and add plenty of plants to give it that natural "oasis" look

There are diy heat exchangers out there too!
If you can control the temperature in that pond, you can keep just about anything...and by anything I mean other than Koi and goldfish.

Welcome and that is a awesome pool!

Nice setup you got going for some large monsters... just make sure you get the correct size fish and work out growth rates for certain monsters, otherwise, you may potentially end up with a pond and 1 monster
