Leave em in the pond like janj says....theyw ill do much better. Its
amazing how much better any fish does outdoors in a more natural
environment than inside in even a perfectly setup aquarium....

The betta's and Guppys I keep outside all do much better, grow nicer
and faster than any we keep inside
