Small pond predator

[RobE]

any perch....since your in fl. dont you have some cool non-natives you can catch and toss in...

Lol you would think that but every time I go freshwater fishing I don't catch a damn thing. Makes for a frustrating day, I guess its just me I can't fish freshwater. Do most of my fishing salt I'm surrounded by it.

have to say i'm a bit surprised that the koi havent kept the population in check. I have an 11" white koi that eats anything less than 3.5". when I had the koi overnight in my 100g the white koi ate 3 dwarf frogs and 2 mollies.

My koi really only eat the pellets. I went to my lfs today and got these guys. I dont know the species but well see how it goes.

I hope they work out ill have to keep an eye on my koi to make sure there not getting messed with. The biggest one was a mean little bastard trying to get ahold of me while I was putting him in the pond.

Keep an eye on the koi and goldies with those guys. They might not eat them, but can inflict some serious wounds during the night.

Thanks for the heads up. I was out there this morning and they looked good, so far so good.
