Couple of useful points , a happy healthy gold fish / carp can live up to fifty years and in the right conditions can exceed 40 pounds in weight.
Goldfish/Carp / Koi only grow the suit the size of the container they are kept in, so the bigger the pond the bigger the fish. I have seen 3 and 4 pound goldfish and carp grown in partially buried ( for insulation) pairs of IBCs, one used as habitat the other used as filter and oxygen transfer.
