thats the attitude to have ..its a good thing to learn by another's mistake instead of your own, and better to let others learn from yours!!

I have 3 2" fancy goldfish and 1 fry that made it i do not have a skimmer, going to buy a bigger pump but not sure what size i need for an external barrel type filter?

My pond is like your pond. I do not have a skimmer also. I have a pond cover. You need a 500gph pump or larger. Get a white 30gal plastic barrel and build your filter. Use one of the many plans on this web site. They all have a water valve for removing water. Remove two barrels full of water and fill up your pond and you are done. Water is changed. So easy. RDK
