Fish kill
 

Anyone know why all the fish got killed in the pond on Bailey Trail by Lake Miona Rec??

No but it stinks

I thought I remembered the same thing last year about this time?

My guess would be pesticide application then a rain storm equals toxic run off

Oxygen depletion...Happens in Fl a lot during rainy season..

That would be my guess to. Too little oxygen for too many fish. It would help if they put an aerator fountain in which look nice plus put more oxygen in the water.

So the rain takes the oxygen away?

And in only that pond? This is interesting.

I am waiting to hear many opinions. And I will.

Even some will say it is ole Gary's fault.;)

Article explaining the situation in today's paper.

For those not in TV, that article says:
Heavy Rain Blamed in Deaths of Fish
A large fish kill in a retention pond was caused by temperature inversion due to heavy rainfall, according to district staff.
Friday's rainfall pushed cold temperatures to the bottom of the pond at the intersection of Buena Vista Boulevard and Baily Trail., causing water in the pond to loose the majority of its oxygen content, Property Management Director Sam Wartibee said.
District staff is cleaning the dead fish out of the pond, Wartibee said.

Such a fragile ecosystem!

And such a responsive infrastructure!

We all know that if it is in The Daily Sun it is true !:jester:

Hmmmmm.
