ewest is very correct. Increase the temperature in the aquarium to 80F-84F and growth will be 3X faster than at 60F. Keep them in the aquarium until pond is 70+F. Feed them all they will eat and watch the water quality - clarity. Cloudy aquarium or tank water indicates bacteria bloom and do a water change.
