I agree with Channa. I too think it would be just fine in your pond.
IF you get one that's roughly the same size as what mine are OR smaller, and you try it and it fails I will be more than happy to add it to my shoal if it doesn't work out.
This way you have NO excuse not to try it.... LOL
IF you are anything like me I was VERY VERY skeptical about liking these fish, but after having them for a few months I may just have them swimming around my place for ther rest of my life in the hobby.... They are without a doubt THE most active predatory fish out there.... And they look good too. PLUS so far it appears a shoal will work. Can't really ask for anything more from a fish.
