Hi, I’m new on here so not sure I’ve posted this in the right place.
After recently buying a camera to see underwater in our garden pond, we’ve noticed a fish that we definitely have not put in there. The pond has been there around 18 years and has around 15 goldfish and koi, however this one has us baffled.
We’ve never seen it come up to the top - hence only knowing it was in there after having a look with the camera, however in recent years there have been far fewer baby fish than there used to be, so I’m not sure if it could be eating them (otherwise I’m not sure what it is eating).
We had been told it could be a lamprey, but after noticing it has barbels and fins, it sounds like that isn’t the case.
Apologies for the picture quality - any help identifying what this is would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance
