We also lost some fish this past winter and we really don't know why. It was just our Koi, the other Comets and Shubunkins seem fine. Hi Elaine,

Last week when the ice was finally out, we found 4 of them floating on the water. It looks like they have been dead quite awhile. The pond has a lot of decaying leaves on the bottom, and I was wondering of the gasses would kill them when the pond is frozen. There were a few dead frogs too, but still millions of tadpoles.

I have never wintered my fish over since I've had my pond (16 years) and they are doing great. Good luck to you. In all honesty I don’t see a problem at all by putting your fish out.

I winter over the fish inside during our cold winter months. The pond water temps are swinging from about 40 overnight temps to 60+ daytime. Would it be too early to put the fish out with temps dropping into the 30-40 range ? We have a small outdoor pond which I have had up and running for a couple weeks now.
