Rosie Reds and Comets

[DePonder]

Ok.. I added 6 of each to help control the mosquitoes. Just how big do they
have to be before they will reproduce? I noticed some cute little baby
fishies under my waterfall last week. I was so excited... until I started my
weekly maintainance on Saturday and found that there are at least a zillion
of these...
They are about half an inch long and very white looking... What do I do now?
Will the Koi and goldfish eat them?

Thanks, Debbie

A baby bass will suck them down in no time.
