Hi all. I went out yesterday to feed my 16 goldfish of various size to

find
many (50?) tiny new swimmers in the pond. I was very excited! Today, I

go
out again and there are countless numbers of the little guys! Must be
hundreds of them. Now...

They are each less than 1/8" long, have round, dark-grey, spotted bodies,
and really skinny tails. They seem to be clinging to the edges more than
they are swimming about. Oh I forgot to mention my pleco who is the

biggest
fish in the pond (8"-10"). What scares me is that these babies really

look
like the pleco!! Should I wait til they grow to be sure they are not
goldfish...or get rid of them - I don't want a pleco pond...


You just spelled pl*co with an 'e' and not an '*' several times. Most will
be dead in a week, I assure you.
