=======================
Could it be excess waste in the water? Have you been doing regular partial
water changes? Could it be from some chemical you used such as an algaecide
or fish medication? You may want to post this on the moderated pond group
as there are few of us left here.

Almost all ponders have moved to rec.ponds.moderated to avoid the
trolls
here. You might want to ask your question there.

foam is dissolved organics.
your fish are spawning
the food you feed the fish is high in grains
you havent changed water in a long time

Yep but in this case if you go out there late at night you'll probably
find Dr. Solo and Joann in the pond getting it on with each
other.............so the foam is well you know....;-)
