My neighbor had to put a screen over their pond. The first stocking was wiped out in less than a week.

1) if you have a water hose nearby, a product called "Scarecrow" Water sprinkler works wonders, day or night. It’s on Amazon. 2) after a heron visit, I placed a length of black corrugated plastic pipe in the pond. The fish will hide in it at the first hint of danger. We used both and never lost a fish from then on. |

fish pond
Is a fish pond allowed in The Villages at all? The only place I know where they are okay is in the historic district. I heard they will make you take it out if it is any other area. Check on the restrictions in your village before you put a lot of money and time into something like that. I believe it is because they draw mosquitoes and are a health risk. I know they are a lot of enjoyment from my up north experience.

If you give them hiding areas they see the shadow of the predator and will swim in or under a rock etc.

Good for you on the netted koi pond. I made a trellis cover and it helped too. Also offers shade. There was a trail of fish leaving my property once. Never again.
