fish that will survive in pond with weather changes
l live in western washington state. l found a pond or swamp im not sure
which but it is around 1/4 a mile into the woods. it is about 1/4 mile
long and maybe a few feet. it has grass floating on top ( the big kind
like in man vs. wild where he fell) l wanna buy fish or any naimals and
just drop them there. it snows rains and gets hot but only for a few
months. will l need to feed them myself first. should l buy them in
winter, summer, or what, should l buy them when they are small or big. if u go tomaps (satelite) type in azteca decorative concrete and u will see my house, go a little to the north and it will show a pond, kinda hard to see. the swamp/pond has like 2 dead trees. the pond is a little muddy in the beginning of it and have never gone any further like walking on it, so it may be all muddy or only some. since it is illegal to just drop fish there what can l do? can l put fish of the same kind that are already in the pond?
There are probably fish in there already, you just haven't seen
them.
Releasing ornamental fish into a natural water way is usually illegal, and
just not a good idea, as they are likely to wipe out whatever native fish
are there already.
It may be more interesting to investigate what is already there, just check the local fishing regualtions. Ian
You're not allowed to release any animals into the wild that
don't already belong there. Even if they are native to the area, dumping
a ton of fish into a tiny pond can seriously tip the balance of the
ecosystem, and has the potential to kill off other native species.
However, if the pond is on your property, then the only situation where
you should add fish in there is if there are mosquitoes breeding in the waters.
Unless the pond is on your property, the above answer is where
you need to look.
First of all releasing fish that are not native to the
ecosystem is a federal crime.
