In that case I'll let them winter over in the pond. It's three feet deep and
1000 gallons. I thought they might get eaten by the frogs...New Bull
froglets are in the pond this year. I was thinking of a twenty gallon tank
and move them out in the spring but now I see that won't do..... Looks like
the pond for these little babies.... I'll hold off as long as I can though.

thanks,

Just make sure that they have some places in which to shelter. Rocks work well,
and since it will be getting cooler before too long, they won't have the plants
to hide in. I have seven goldfish fry that are now about 2.5 inches long. My
waterfall is built into one end of the pond, and there are lots of rocks where
they can hide if need be. They don't have to now that they are larger. In
fact, they have already joined the school. But when they were smaller, they
stayed in amongst the rocks.
