Thank God none of my HBG have died, but I'm wondering when the die off will end. I must also say that the numbers are not huge--but still!!! My buddy just down the road also has some dying fish, and he has never had any in over 20 years. Is this normal with a turnover event, or is something else at play. We have been dry. Pond was down a couple feet, but we got nearly 2 1/2 inches this week. Now, lots of tadpoles piping.


Something doesn't sound right to me. IMHO I would send a few for necropsy and end the mystery. FWIW I would definitely not stock any replacement fish till I had a definitive answer. Just my 2 cents
