6 tank fish. Dylan, Monty, Shadow, Ghost, Phantom, Sidney aka Sid for short

23 pond fish. Zoomie, Cash, Tod, Murphy, Bingo, Kovu, Rufus, Wilbur, Miles, Mitzy, Ralph, Stan, Archie, Marley, Megan, Tommy, Ike, Twix, Rio, Keesha, Oz, George, Bruce.

There is certainly something seriously wrong with this particular pond. At first I considered a certain aquatic invertebrate as the culprit (Dragonfly larvae can catch and eat small fish), however five fish is too much for an insect to handle in such a short space of time; and if there are no marks on the corpses of the dead fish then this rules out predation as a possibility altogether.

If I could come and physically see the pond, I would gladly drain it down for you and dredge the silt at the bottom for any clues, as well as take skin swab and faecal samples and from any surviving fish and place them under a microscope.

It's an odd time of year to be losing fish in these numbers

Oh dear Dan! I am so sorry!
Getting a little worried though! your fish are goin fill up the pond at rainbow bridge if we aint careful!

I don't know what is happening to them. The last few I hve lost have been in the tank but these were in the pond.
I know it is an odd time of year although it has got colder out.
DT I honestly do not have a clue what is happening to all my fish.
PS Chillinator what onearth is DO.
