Hello, last night I came home to my pond having about 2'' of water left in it! I freaked out thinking that there was a hole poked in my liner and maybe the storm knocked a big limb down and punctured it!? I found out that it was the Fountain head to the top of my Beckett pump (The Attachment that like a 360 degree wall of water) was clogged somehow on one side and was spewing water over the ponds edge for who knows how long?! It was about 42-45 degrees last night here in Florida and without thinking before, I pumped the water hose into the pond and filled it again. As i was pulling leaves and other small debris out of the pond while filling it, i realized my hand wasn't numb anymore and that the water temp was raised significantly compared to the water that was previously in the pond! I checked this morning and couldn't see any fish (because they hide allot during the day) but none belly up on the surface. I have only had my 8 goldfish for 4 months and I don't want to lose them as they are only 3-3.5'' long, Should I worry about them dying or getting ill from that much Temp change in a short amount of time? Thanks, sorry this was long :redface:
