How are the fish today Marcel? Did they dare come out finally?
Nope still in hiding, if i sit next to the tub i see some causously foraging the substrate around the caves and or quickly race in panic close to the bottom towards the next cave. They are not comming to the surface nor touching the food that floats. Yesterday later in the day i gave them a large 80% water change and syphon the victims scales out i saw laying around.. Maybe in case just to get rid of the smell off death in the tub. The big girl that survided paniced like crazy when the water became to low and almost got pulled out of hiding. Normaly they didn't mind the water change and come out to play in the fresh water stream.
I covered it last night with the chairs and a net.. Long ago i made a pergola above that erea it has growing a rather big grape growing over it by now. This moring i saw a few broken off young grape branches laying on top of the net.. There was no wind enough to brake them off, i think the devil came looking again last night landing on the pergola braking the young grape branches off. In about a month from now the grape will be big enough again the cover the complete terrace with a canopy. Just bad luck this year having a Heron flying over the garden that early in the spring while the tub still was in full view from above.
Have that tub for over 6 years in the garden.. This was my first Heron attack.. Well there must be a first for everything.. AFter all that time i actualy forgot about it that it was even possible to happen..
