the pool needs to be quite deep so the fish can go to the bottom when the water freezes

Default DR1 Pond Club

We have a fairly fast running stream through our garden , happily recorded as a Zanja by El Medio Ambiente and Officina Turistica. We tried putting in a cage (howler) to keep a couple of tortoises but the first very heavy rain turned it over and they escaped. Is it feasible to have something similar for Koy and the like or would we get too much of the same problem?
