Tadpoles eating fish in pond???
Stella wrote in message Or it could be a fungal disease affecting the fish. I doubt it is voracious tadpoles. ==Yes, it may well be fungal. The one who died had a fungal infection and we treated the pond. Frogs can and often do bring disease into garden ponds by moving from infected places. Red Leg is a serious and common disease of frogs that is transmitted to fish causing serious problems. Every spring I treat my pond with a suitable anti-parasite/bacteria and the fish (and arriving frogs) stay healthy. What people seem to be suggesting is that frogs and fish can live happily together but I'm not sure that I'm convinced. The fish seemed really happy before the arrival of the frogs. I feel we may have to choose between frogs and fish. :-) Quite! -- Bob www.pooleygreengrowers.org.uk/ about an Allotment site in Runnymede fighting for it's existence. |
