I'm glad to find this thread. I live in Zone 8 and inherited a pond when I moved into this house in January. It's above ground (a shallow bowl about 6 Ft across and 1 Ft deep in the middle. I think it would get colder than an in-ground pond. I have water hyacinths and lettuce and some kind of floating grass that's supposed to help keep it clean. There are a bunch of goldfish that have doubled in size since I put them in there. I sure didn't plan ahead and let my enthusiasm get ahead of me, now I'm afraid I'm going to have a big old mess!
