We have some fish in the pond only because a friend moved and begged us
to take them. There a a few goldfish and one larger shubunkin. I think it's a shubunkin. I can't find anything else that it might be. Anyway the shubunkin is driving the other fish nuts. His favorite game is to take the fat one (maybe some sort of oranda) and push him around from the side or underneath. The little guy can barely swim as it is with his short stubby fins. He will circle him around the pond 2-3 times before he gets away. So, is this some sort of mating thing? The shubunkin doesn't bite or pick at them, just loves to push them around. I find the other goldfish hiding (and panting heavily) in the veggie filter. If the shubunkin finds them he will root them out, or sometimes just wiggle in beside them. That's what made me think it was a mating thing. Mark b. |
