AnswerNice work on the pond.
What fish you stock depends on where your pond is. If you live in a warmer region, you have many more options than I do in Virginia.
Goldfish (comet, shubunkin, etc.) and Orfe are both suitable for a 90 gallon pond. I wouldn't stock any koi due to their large adult size. The general rule of thumb varies from person to person but is approximately one 12" fish per 200 gallons.
I suggest three goldfish (carassius auratus). The standard ones will survive winter better.
