Pegasus Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Not sure where to put this, but I recieved this in my mail today and wondered if the amphibian guys can help. Can anyone suggest a way to get rid of an over abundance of bull frogs in my goldfish pond. We live near Houston Texas and there are always lots of native bull frogs around . We shut the pond down for two months and when we started it again we have many small bull frogs. I have newly hatched goldfish most about an inch long,will the frogs eat them? Thanks for any help you can give us. Bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fins Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 Add salt to the pond. Depending on the size of the pond and depending what salt level is acceptable to goldfish. frogs hate salt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fins Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 When I lived in figi a resort would hire me every so often to catch all the frogs I could. I think I got 50 cents a frog. I would them release them just down the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Posted October 1, 2004 Report Share Posted October 1, 2004 and how cunning fins They would then turn around and go back home. Frogs are good at finding their"own" patch of water. Alan 104 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
