So is the attached a pic of frog eggs, fish eggs, or something else?
Only 1 little bullfrog in the pond I know of and haven't seen any toads in a while. The GF & Comets have been chasing the last couple days and it looked like the koi were feasting on eggs in the plants yesterday. I've just never actually seen fish spawn (at least the eggs).
I know the koi spawned this spring (could have been the two comets or 2 gold fish) as I have been trying to count the babies I have. Turned the waterfall pump off a few weeks ago to do some maintenance and holly crap I have babies. Hard to count but I know there are 2 black & white ones, one orange and several black ones.

Might be a bad phone pic, I'll get one w the good camera.

Thanks T

Those look like toad eggs, frogs are in jell like stuff, big gooey clump, fish scattered.

Thanks, hadn't seen any toads lately but that's what they looked like to me also. Have never seen fish eggs, in my pond anyway.

Thanks again

Glad to help, my toads do eggs in pairs in a long string. Would be a hoot if in the side by side, one was a gal, one was a guy.............for the whole length of the string.
