Granted, the most common concern for the normal fish pond is ample dissolved oxygen. Although I'm not sure that it is just primarily oxygen that we need to worry about especially in the crowded or high density fish pond. Once densities increase beyond normal carrying capacity then ammonia /and waste products become very important factors. High ammonia/nitrite levels irregardless of ample oxygen can stress fish to the point of death.
