Default will mosquito fish survive the winter?

You've got a point there! I was projecting my frustration with Mosquito
fish on the original poster. To the original poster I apologize. To BV,
please send me your mailing address so that I can ship a trillion Mosquito
fish to you for belated Xmas present :-) lol

I still can't imagine though that one will want mosquito fish for pond pet!

Yea, I think normally Nedra (if I may speak for her) & I would agree, but
this ponder was concerned. So good advice was given.

Who are we to say what feelings are allowed for which species of fish?

Some
of us think it is silly to worry about feeder goldfish, but we don't poo
poo them, do we? Of course not, we're a hook-you-on-this-hobby-
with-any-aquatic-critter sort of newsgroup. very Big grin ~ jan

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!
