First off I have a 400+ gallon pond with two Pleco's, 3 Shubunkin Goldfish and 3 Sarassa goldfish. The 3 sarassa's were the first added and they hid alot until we brought in the shubunkin. They really brought alot of joy to the pond. Well Tuesday of this week I noticed a big bird around my pond trying to get my fish, well I don't think he did but ever since then the fish have been hiding all the time, I rarely see them. I know the bird stressed them out and I haven't seen the bird since Tuesday evening.
I am going to put a net over the pond. Is there anything I can do that will help remove the stress from my fish, I really miss seeing them in there. I still feed them like always and can tell they are eating but it is after I leave the pond area, if I stand back far away I can see them coming to the surface to get the food. Is it just going to take time or will they forever be stressed out? Thanks for your help!
