I'm another fan of the non-reproducing or minimal reproducing hybrids for small ponds. While it may seem like a PITA to stock fish every year to replace the ones removed, it's a far smaller PITA than having to manage a too-large population of fish that don't grow. Plus, if the fish get too prolific, you will start to have water quality issues and algae problems.
