Do Goldfish 'hibernate'?

Mike


I would have thought that before putting 80 fish into a pond 2 months ago
you would have researched this earlier ie:3 months ago.


These fish were an 'overgrow' from my neighbour and we were hoping to get
them moved quite some time ago, but he has been very on his son's house.

Also it needs to be a good sized pond to accommodate 80 fish.


50 ish foot diameter do?


What are they? orfe, carp, hybrid? do you know?


"Goldfish"


What are you going to do about their wellbeing?


What can be done when you can't see them?


Were they free of parasites and diseases when you introduced them to your
pond?


as far as I can tell yes. The rest in the original pond were good :-))

was your pond free of them?


Ask me one on football.


These(and more) questions are something to bear in mind but the question,
Do Goldfish 'hibernate'? tells me everything.


I hope it tells you I know sod all about goldfish. If not, what does it tell
you?
