Oh ya I was thinking of some sort of hiding spot for the fish...automated sprinklers I have heard dont work very well...not much use
:We have a resident heron in our neighborhood that would go through our fish within days of putting a batch in. What we found that finally worked was to get an automated sprinkler (The scarecrow that they were talking about before) as well as a "fish garage", which is a black netted arch kinda thing that goes in the water at hte bottom of the pond for the fish to hide under. Sense we've put in these two things, we've not lost a single fish. Good luck!
