Ever since I was born my Dad has kept fish. For the first time in my life I now have no fish atoll. I once had about 40 fish. I had 10 in a little pond, 2 in a tank inside and about 30 in a big pond including 5 big Koi Carp. 2 of them ghost carp. In 2006 I cleaned my little pond out to find out that all the 9 fish I had in it at that time had gone and that it was full of newts. The newts had eaten all the fish and taken over the pond so I bought about another 8 and put slippy posts up to stop the newts. Then in 2009 my Dad came home from work and found about 25 dead in the big pond. I think an Otter came into it and took them all out. So I fished the 5 remaining goldfish out and put them in the little pond where it was safe. As for the 2 in the tank 1 died of old age and the other one died when my grandma let the water go all bad so it had no air to breath. When I moved house I had 13 left. 4 died last summer and then this winter the cold weather took the last 9 out. I found them all dead the other day and had to bury them. So has anyone else who keeps fish ever lost them all in 1 go? Also if I get some more do you know anyway I could prevent this from happening again for a 4th time?
