Pond fish survive winter by slowing down their metabolism, seeking out warmer water at the bottom of the pond, and relying on stored fat for energy. They may also hibernate in mud or under ice to conserve energy.

Which type of fish live best with kois?

Very calm and non-territorial fish. I would suggest gold fish called Comets. They are inexpensive since some are used as feeder fish. They come in a variety of colors so some may think that you have more Koi in your pond and since they are gold fish, they can live in cold water and if your pond has enough room, they will survive cold snaps during the winter.


Are you more likely to find frog eggs in a pond with lots of fish or a pond with very few fish?

One is more likely to find lots of frog eggs in a pond with a small amount of fish because frog eggs tend to be eaten by fish sometimes. So less fish equals more eggs that survive.
