Default will mosquito fish survive the winter?

Wait a second Nedra and Jan! I bet to differ if I may.

Mosquito fish are dime a dozen, they are not pets, and they breed by the
trillion per second! My dear wife calls them the cockroaches of the pond!

My point? Why go through the hassle and waste of utility to try and over
winter mosquito fish! I am almost certain that the darn things will


survive

a nuclear attack anyway, so I doubt if freeze will kill them, but if it


does

go to your vector control center and get a bucket load for free!

You dig the hole.
You fill the hole with water.
You add fish.
You are responsible for the fish and their well being...even if they are
cockroaches.

I agree with you BV, and Jan and Nedra. Many of us may
start with feeder goldfish and then decide that other fish are
affordable after all. When I started this hobby (obsession)
I first purchased feeder fish.
