Hi all,
after having some serious issues with a heron, I've always had to replenish my fish stock every now and then. Well, the heron issue has been solved, but I bought some new koi in March to replace the ones lost. Everything's great until my six goldfish (mostly comets) decide this will be a good year to reproduce! There has now been three different batches of fry this year. The oldest about 2.5" and the youngest about 3/4". I can't count them, but I'm pretty sure there are more than 30 in total. I love that they find my pond a great healthy place to live and reproduce, but now I have too many fish! What do I do? The goldfish were sort of test fish when I first got the pond. Koi is what I want to keep. :-/
