zachyd Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi there, I am new here. my name is Zach and I am 8. We have just moved house & there is a gold fish pond in our lawn. I was going to put fish in it but it turned out that there are all ready fish in it. the water was very dirty at first,and I didin't think threre were fish in there. Then I saw fish in there so we cleaned it out and I am now keeping gold fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 Hi Zach and welcome. Good to hear you cleaned out the pond. I am sure the goldfish are much happier. I have a goldfish pond too and love feeding the fish. 6 year old Shante likes sitting on the deck dangling her feet in so the fish can nibble her toes. They don't seem to mind when she kicks her feet in the water either! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachyd Posted February 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I have aprox 8 to 10 fish, 1 is about 20cm long & the others are from baby size to about 10cm long. the pond water was so dirty we did not think there were anything in it but found them when emtying it. they are very shy & swim away & hide if they see me. & i have seen a frog in the pond & i want to get more.

Caryl Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 I am sure they will slowly get used to you and end up coming up to be fed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
