I want to get a pond in which I could keep a largish turtle and maybe some goldfish. I have never looked at ponds or equipment before and was wondering on average how much it would cost. Right now they are in a kiddie pool and if a nice pond would be to expensive I might just upgrade to a larger pool. Thanks for any estimate.
My Tanks: 15 gallon: 1 female red wag platy, 1 female sunburst play, 3 black skirted tetras, 1 plecosomas, 1 mystery snail3 gallon: 1 male crowntail betta 1 gallon: 1 female crowntail betta Pond: 1 Map turtle, asorted minnows Other pets....3 rabbits, 2 red ear sliders, chickens, ducks, horse, Fainting goat

Cost is going to vary depending on what kind of system you choose, but plan on about $15-25/gallon and you'll wind up with a decent system.

Turtles and goldfish are usually not the best idea together, although it does depend somewhat on the species of turtle and the type of goldfish.

Fantail - Oliver
Black Moor - Damian
Calico Ryukin - Serafina

I am actually going to get feeder goldfish so it doesn't really matter if the turtle eats them. They are just to add a bit of color until becoming food.

A little morbid, but I guess it works.
