Out of the original 6 Goldfish and 6 Orfe there are I believe only 2 Orfe remaining in the pond.
I have now purchased 6 small Koi Carp from our nearest garden centre at a cost of £30. However since putting them in the pond I have barely seen them at all due presumably to a fairly cold water temperature of 15 degrees or less.
The frog population of the pond has also been badly hit. Last year it was normal for me to see 5 or more frogs in the pond at any one time but this year I have only just spotted a frog for the first time.
I will not make the mistake of leaving the pond unguarded this coming winter!
