We also had frogs which spawned in the pond (it wasn't as deep as the really serious keepers had); mating season in the pond was something to behold. We moved the spawn to a feeder tank to give the tadpoles a chance of survival. A pond is a lovely thing to have in the garden. What do you do in winter . Do you have to transfer the fish indoors ? Always wondered what happens to the fish ? I suppose our winters are not too bad compared to some parts of the UK but we still get snow at times .

Metabolism slows down, they eat less. You break the ice if it freezes over. Expensive Koi May have heated ponds. They’re mollycoddled. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
