Oh No! Fish bumps.

Seeing the good helps settle the stress of the bad.

I know exactly how you feel! Seeing our goldfish active and healthy made me feel so much better about the disaster this winter proved to be. Hang in there @JBtheExplorer.

Hi
My fish all seem to be fine. My water temp is hovering around 50. Im in NY your in Wisconsin so I'm guessing your a bit colder than me. Your seeing frogs? I would think they might still be dormant. I would think frogs would not do well in 50 degree water.

They don't necessarily become active, but they always start peeking out as soon as the ice melts every year. They'll occasionally sit out along the edge on sunny days. Same thing for frogs in natural ponds. I often see them sitting along the edge of ponds shortly after the ice melts. I expect to start hearing Western Chorus Frogs calling in nearby ponds any day now. They waste no time!

Ok. I don't know how many frogs stayed in the pond for the winter. I know at least one or two were in the water into November. Ill be on the lookout to see if I see any soon. Good luck with everything.
