Yep, runs 24/7

I used to have a gold fish that used to try and jump up into the 1/2"
pipe that filled the one small container pond by my large pond. It was
like this fish was obsessed with trying to get up into that fill pipe.
I have water constantly pumped into this pond, and it flows out over a
spillway (with a barricade to restrain the fish in the pond, and then
down a stream and over the water fall and returned to the pond. So
water is always being run through this small 8 or 10 gal; preformed
pond. The fish eventually must have done himself in as onne day he was
floating on the top dead as could be. He kept this action up
constantly, like a salmon trying to swim upstream against thr rapids
etc....all the other fish were content, but that joker.
