Moving the Pond Fish For the Winter

Hello, hivers!

About 2 weeks ago, I finally got around to moving the pond fish from their summer pond to my 100 gallon tank in the greenhouse for the winter. I have to do this every year because the pond freezes solid in the dead of winter due to the very cold temperatures we get at night during the winter. I was late getting it done this year because we had a warmer than average fall and I wasn't thinking about it.

This year, I decided to just pump the water from the pond into the greenhouse tank to fill it up. That way I didn't have to worry about water temperature differences for the fish, and it's the same water they've been living in all summer and fall. Also, I have to pump most of the water out of the pond to be able to catch the fish, otherwise they just swim away from the net. I ended up catching 9 fish to put in the greenhouse tank.

I made a video about the process and uploaded it to my youtube channel a week or so ago. This is the video, it's about 12 minutes long.

Thanks for stopping by my page and checking out this post. I hope you found the video interesting.
