hi matt. yes u sure can have fish in there. when i use to keep water dragons i had them in the house in a huge tank whilst they were young and small. i kept feeder fish in there, and they would constantly try and catch them, and on quite a few occasions they suceeded. however if u have a larger set up with a pond and had larger fish, it would look awesome, but it all boils down to the dragon and wether or not it can be bothered with the fish. i say go for it, it will look great :-)

in my outside setup i have comets in my water dragon pond and they have been there for over a year and are still all alive!
when they were smaller and were inside i had zebra danios in the tank and they all got eaten or died from stress as there was not as much room to get away....

Hey thanks guys,
I think they will love it too.. off to the pet shop to find me some small feeder fish, hopefully they might even keep the water a bit cleaner... thanks for the help!!

I also have comets in my water dragons pond, they usually end up putting more waste into the water than what they clean up.
I haven't lost a fish yet either.
