| Wanted to know what you guys do when your fish breeding and you get too many extra fish in your ponds? I have given some of the bigger ones away before on Craigslist but just noticed at least 15 new babies in the pond. Don't know what to do with them all. They're just goldfish. |

| I have given my baby fish to the local Pet stores. They'd gladly take them, as they just sell them. I you can't sell, they will. |
|
| I either sell or give away my extras. Which I need to do desperately right now. Pet stores here won't take them unless you have a dealer/business license. A local one here recently sold parasite infested fish to several customers that nearly whiped out the peoples ponds. And apparently knew there was a problem by what folks told me. The store was more than happy to sell these people the meds to take care of that problem. |

| When you notice your fish spawning, you may want to remove any plants that are in the pond, denying them places for the eggs to incubate. I also removed the rocks from my pond, and haven't seen a baby in the pond since! |
