HI
I'm new here. I live in north central Illinois zone 5. Our pond is iced over currently
and the fish (I hope) are resting on the bottom. This is the second winter and our fish survived the first one so I am confident they will make it again this time around. The pond bug has bit my wife and I so when we found a couple plastic pre-formed ponds on clearance at Lowes we grabbed them both.
Our main pond is about 3500 gallons and is home to 10 koi. One of the 125 gallon pre-formed ponds is in and is home to 3 goldfish. I will post some pictures of our ponds and look forward to learning more
