We pulled out some weed from out pond and realised it was full of eggs,
so we placed it in a bucket.

We now have a bucket full of tiny, tiny fish, only about 0.5 cms long.
Please help, are they likely to survive? They have been in the bucket
for almost a week now, but do we have to feed them (if so on what?), and
how do we prevent the water from going stagnant?

Hope somebody can assist us.

I would put them back in the pond. I killed things this year pulling
them out of the pond. If you really really want all those fish having
babies of thier own, set up an aquarium until they are too big to eat
by your other fish. I wish my goldfish would have eaten a few more
babies than they did, because now i have to do something about them.
It is rough trying to keep a pond from beoming overstocked!

Good luck and i am not an experienced ponder.
