Default Baby fantails

Hi Sue,

I have a few fantails in with some comets and shibunkin. I think they are a
blast to watch as they seem to be doing a furious motion to move along at
such a slow pace. I have a skimmer and haven't had anything other than
gambusia and my turtle in it off and on, but I don't think it really hurts
them. Does your skimmer have a net so they can be in there without getting
caught in the pump? If so I would say no problem.

It does take a while for them to be able to compete for food, but once they
figure it out, they seem pretty competitive and able to get enough to eat.

Should I put it
back into a barrel (which is the only other 'pond' I own) or is it OK
in the big pond? I've also considered giving it to someone with a
pond that does not have a skimmer(if I can find one). What do you
think?
