gotta find out the water parameters. and find out what the condition of the bottom
of the pond is. if there is a thick layer of rotting debris on teh bottom, they will
root around in it looking for food and get a gill full of hydrogen sulfide and that
will make em float. the other possibility is gross overfeeding.
what kind of aeration in the pond?

position... Any ideas?
