Index of Subjects Hi George If there was a lot of organic matter in the bottom of the pond, could have caused a stripping of the oxygen as decomposition progressed. Anyother species? As well, any idea how long the goldfish have been in that pond... they are not native, so would have had to have been a release/introduction.

There was a good selection of small and large fish, I only noticed gold fish. It was quite impressive how many there were! George Forsyth
