We bought 5 small goldfish last year at Wal-mart, and this year they spawned and 10 babies have survived from that. So we went from 5 to 15 fish (at least) this year alone. (There may be more, but it's hard to count them because of the greeenwater.) BTW our pond is 12x13x3.5-2.5 ft deep. -- Gareee© (Gary Tabar Jr.) Gareee's Homepage: http://www.fortunecity.com/tattooine.../mainframe.htm |

You will soon have more fish than you want. If you really want something else with your goldfish rosy-reds are nice and stay small. But they too reproduce like crazy. -- McKoi.... the frugal ponder... My Pond Page http://tinyurl.com/cuq5b ~~~ }((((o ~~~ }{{{{o ~~~ }(((((o |
