If you have a bunch of little goldfish fry in a pond, you won't have
mosquitos. If the water is moving, it is even more unlikely. Especially if
one has a skimmer.

I'm sure it depends on how fast one's water is moving thru.... The koi
ponds have no little fish and I've yet to see a skeeter in the ponds. The
lily pond ends up with little babies, but I never saw a skeeter even before
that... both have skimmers. Prior to installing and having fish full time I
had tadpoles show up about the same time as skeeter larvae would mature.

I really don't think you need mosquito fish if you have other types. ~ jan

We have had babies in the ponds with mosquito fish...but very few! We
shall see in the spring. I could pull the fish and not return the
mosquito fish. I would faer the mosquitos, however. Maybe i should
cut them down to only a few?
