Question
I have got a selection of different fish in my pond, twice I have seen a frog holding on to the goldfish can you tell me the reason for this, the fish are healthy, is there anyway of stopping this happening again.All the fish different sizes,But the frog has gone for any size

Answer
Dear Andrew,

thank you for your question.
normally the frogs can use fish for 'Taxi' purposes for so far I know.
there is however a danger in it as there is a possibility that they plant there feet in to the eyes of the fish and wound them or even make them blind as it can injure the fish.
So in itself it is not abnormal, however a risk.

hope this helps.
kind regards,
Raf
