Question
I released 35 goldfish in a pond and all are getting wiped out by perch and bass what should i do should i put more in or what

Answer
Is this a closed system pond you own, or a natural pond that meets other bodies of water?

If it is a natural pond, NEVER release an aquarium fish into the wild. I cannot emphasize how important that is. Not only can it destroy a natural eco system, but it there are actually laws being made to ban all species non native to the US due to a fear of the worst case scenario of this happening.

If it is your pond, putting more in will end in the same results.

I am sorry.
