We have one comet, two fantails, one shubunkin, one clam, five pond snails
and a five frogs (only one that I positively know is still in the pond as I
see him/her each morning swimming around.

Yes we are taking the pump/filter with us.

Thank you for the tote tub idea. )

My husband and I just purchased a house. We previously were renting and
have
a small pond we put in. As we'll be moving and do not wish to leave the
pond
inhabitants what are our options in moving them this time of year. (We
are
in located bordering Zones 5 & 6 in NE Ohio.)

If money were no object. I'd get a large aquarium and enjoy them thru the
winter, till you get the pond put in. On the economical side, I'd get a
tote tub using a bucket filter and keep them inside next to a window for
light.

It would help if we knew what kind of inhabitants you have, will you be
taking the pump & filter with you? ~ jan
