Default Piranha in the River Thames?

BV

Sounds like you will have our problem when you hope for baby koi or
goldfish: too many predatory minnows. We have done the minnow trap route to
pull hundreds out. Will continue doing that for a while. We hope for baby
koi this year.

seriously considering turning my Koi pond into a Pirahna pond

Is that to take care of the rosie red minnows?

Ugh. I went back to the pond this weekend. There is one dead frog that I

can
see. The Koi were swimming about, but stayed down low. The minnows...oh

the
minnows. Just about every one of them has grown over the winter. I expect,

I
will be able to walk across the pond on their backs by mid-summer.

Anyone in the MD area looking for feeders, I'll be having a sale in

Spring.
