Default Frog spawn

I have found a large clump of frog spawn in my pond my question is will
this cause any harm to my fish as I probably have not got rid of it all
(taken to local pond)will the fish eat it and will it cause problems in the
filter.
Thanks
Colin..


Assuming it is frog spawn, your fish will most likely eat them. Now if it
is toad spawn, this could be a problem. Toad poles have a nasty taste, so
fish won't eat them, so if you had enough of them, they could overwhelm the
water system, and the toxic water could hurt or kill the fish. ~ jan
