My little Gardeners...

I love my goldfish. theyre big, dumb, cute and very excited when they see you. Rather like big floppy dogs, only with scales and fins... and likes dogs they are avid gardeners. My Elodia that i painstakenly planted has all be uprooted by the feasting fishes and is all floating on the surface again!

But while in Hong Kong we ventured over to Ocean Park and visited the Goldfish Padoga. It was a very pretty sight! The big koi pond in the middle with a lovely fountian

There they taught me a trick! Now goldfish love to dig in the gravel for food/poo. So place some big rocks around the base of the plant... and SORTED!!! no uprooted plants again!
