Koi Help

Jacksonville, FL(Zone 8b)

I went to get a couple of goldfish to put into the newest of my pools, was talked into getting 2 koi about 4 inches.
Now I am not sure that my set up is good enough. This is what I have and plan to do.
The pool is deep enough and as they get bigger I can put them into the larger pool
I have water coming into the pools-have a faucet that can not be turned off all the way so I ran a drip hose, put a mister on the end put this over a foot above a bird bath , drilled a hole int the tray and put a drip hose in it so the water can fall into the first and larger pool. This pool has a hole drilled in it's side and a larger hose runs through it into the second pool which also has a hose flowing into the next.
I plan to order a solar air pump to use with 2 of the pools.
The pools get some shade and I have a piece of a clay dish that make a hiding place-where they are hiding right now. There are waterlilies an plants in the pools. I do that they are healthy so far as I looked for them and they where very active. I plan on adding another pool the same side as the second pool but I will make sure to get goldfish.
The middle pool is the one that I have them in right now
Should I do anything else or will this be enough.
