Can anyone explain why one of my pond fish is very fat?
I have Comet gold fish in my garden pond and one of them is very fat. It seems happy enough and is still taking food. I think she could be pregnant but is it not a bit late in the year to have young? If that is the case is there anything I can do to stop her having hundreds of small fish in my pond as it will get very overcrowded? Please help thanks.

3 AnswersGolf1 decade agoWhy are BMX saddles positioned so low?
I am a road cyclist and know the importance of a correct saddle height and position. Therefore, why is it that every time I see young lads on BMX bikes their saddles are right down on the frame and usually lying at some extreme angles? Can it be that the lads I see do not know how to set their saddles correctly as they just seem to run about the streets. Maybe BMX riders who actually compete could inform me.
