This is just a suggestion - I would separate those larger fry from the
smaller ones. This will give the smaller, less aggressive fish a better
chance to get plenty of food and hopefully catch up a little. As time
is

Already done, the 5 biggest are in their own place now. The rest were
split into two halves. One half was returned to the pond where there is
plenty of watercress in the margins for them to hide and feed in. This
is more an experiement to see if any manage to survive.

## Some will but most wont. In my ponds, full of plants, most do not
survive unless removed to their own ponds/pools.

The other half have been put in large window boxes which I lined and
added various plants to. These I will continue to feed as before. Plenty
are space and small water changes each day.

It will be interesting to see which ones fair best.

## That's hard to say. It all depends on water quality, food, competition
etc.
