Default Putting tiny fish in with bigger fish

Have just seen some very tiny black fish 4 mm or so in length in the garden
pond. I think they are goldfish babies?

I thought i would trap them in a 'bottle trap' and put them in the house
aquarium that has three goldfish about 6cm in size.

Would the small fish be safe or would they be likely to be eaten? If there
are not safe what would be roughly the minimum size that they would have to
grow to, to be safe? Thanks.

Be better to just **** in the outdoor pond and perhaps a shovel full
of slat would do it and not have to freaking worry about any stupid
little baby fish.........................or the big ones either.same
proceedure will work for the inmside fish tank oo

Thanks Tynk. Life must have been terribly hard on you to reduce you to
spending your time like this ?

And word has it that Dr. Solo will gobble any size big or small and
swallow it. Learned it from TYNK the famous ex sword but now famous
