I woke up the pond this week. Although, it probably woke itself up a few weeks ago; Thanks global warming !! Did a 50% water change and started to feed the fish pre-season/spring food (Wheat Germ). The filter and water feature aren't online yet, that's this weekend's chore. It looks as though quite a few babies made it from last year. I have tiny little koi/comets swimming around this spring. Sadly there are way too many so I will have to cull them.

A visit from a cormorant would solve your problem..

It doesn't work like that sadly. They just magically appear and your fish disappear.

However I have another solution for you Kien, open your own urban fishing place:

Heron works too! Trust me, I know! (it's actually not that funny ).

Spring feeding.

Can't you sell the excess babies to a LFS ?

If not, what about freezing them and making some fish food mash/cubes ?
After all, you're the guy I learned from to make my own SW food

That's actually maybe not a bad idea..
