I generally recommend patience. However, if the water is healthy looking, you are probably OK. Put some minnows in a minnow bucket and see how they do. Keep an eye on them to see if they are swimming naturally or coming to the top for air.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
