Hi
Newbie to the site so hello
Over the past couple of weeks i have had quite afew fish die
My pond has been set up and built last october, no fish where put into the pond until late spring. Every thing has been great until the past few week when i have noticed that this years baby fish have started dying. I had to take out at least 8 yesterday and 2 today.
Also lost 2 of my big fish no signs of damage to them at all.
The water is good i have tested it all readings at zero:bouncycig:
I do have some charcoal which i use for my tropical fish tanks and i was wondering if i place it in a large cloth bag and put it in the return waterflow it may help as all i can think of is my poor fish have an illness.
My only other concern is HERON, DUCK Attack its very hard to see all of my fish as they hide under a very large water lilly, could it be that the dead fish are the ones left dying after a fishing feeding frenzzy?????
OK i know i have gone on a lot but i am stuck as to what is going on here i cant net the pond as its all hard lanscaping around it i have done all i can to deter the Herons and ducks in other ways (Jack Russell being the Anti Heron Missile).
