GB is probably right but I'd still pay attention to how long etc this goes on and if the chasee ever gets a break. Spawning time can be brutal but I tend to agree that the fish seem young to be doing this. And it doesn't seem the right season for this (unless you're in a warm area? hmm, Florida? Well, maybe spawning IS happening!). Sometimes, the only solutioin is to ADD more fish so one doesn't get chased but others will too, you know, sort of a too many choices to just choose one. As long as the chasee still eats and doesn't ALWAYS hide, just watch and wait. Prithee, hie thee to thoust Pisces shoppe and buy thee more! heh, bet you never thought we'd EVER prod a ponder to get MORE fish, didcha!
helps when you DON'T feed the lil babies, Boss; but, I applaud your plan and use it myself in the spring! Any shenanigans that happen during the summer get camouflaged by all the lily leaves and whatnot!
It really helps they have a ton of natural food in the pond and thrive without a bit of help from me. They munch down any eggs they can find. There are survivors, but 10 years later still not over stocked.
yep, I remember that incident for you; I'd have been devastated. I can't tell you how much I feel blessed by putting up a screened structure over top, and by accident, avoid all the predator issues. Sooooo much peace of mind. The only preds I worry about are kids across the street and so far, I don't even think they know we HAVE a pond. BUT! I hear I'll be getting some cameras in the near future and that should help me monitor THAT situation better.
that's how MFS starts, which leads to LPS and then we drop the MFBA document on you! It's real, don't resist; resistance is futile!
we are OTG...ah damn was borg, but we are better! Document link in my signature, rdy to use!

I'll translate fer ya, JDub: he's saying we are the Off Topic Gang, but my reference was to the 'Borg' as in one of the villains in Star Trek Next Generation (they were a hive mindset) which would tell those it was going to conquer 'resistance is futile', and Dime is saying we're better than the Borg! Then some gibberish about the MFS manifesto being in his siggy, READY to use! Which it is! Handy, don'tcha know, for all the 'laghetto bambinos'! Yeah, I like MY version better!
