First Baby Goldfish
 
Have a first sighting of a baby goldfish about 1" long.
Pond is 275gal preformed w/ 5 common goldfish about 6" long and one fantail.
This is a first for us since installing last fall. We were quite excited.
Have provide a lot of cover for the young, lots of Water Lettuce and Water
Hyacinth + 3 large clumps of Hornwart. 3 Lilies plus the usual marginal
plants.
Just spotting the one has made our evening.
Hope there are several more that have survived.

Pleased Ponder
Jerry

Congratulations! I'm on my fifth year and no little ones. Most of the goldfish
I believe have died celibates. Now I have one (old) goldfish and six little
koi. I'm not against inter species relationships as long as they are happy.
Seriously, I have provided plant material, and have watched what I take out
during cleaning so's not to remove little ones. How can I encourage a little
propagation?

Move them to my pond. That seems to be all my fish do - they're like pond
rabbits.
