Feeding:Minnow are omnivores and will eat most types of Frozen, Live and Dry Fish Foods. They are great fish for getting rid of Mosquito larvae.

Reproduction: White Cloud Mountain Minnows will spawn all year round. They will scatter the eggs around the pond. It is recommended to have a lot of plants in the pond for the eggs to be hidden among. Minnows aren't as aggressive about eating the eggs or young as most fish are, so there is a likely chance that you may get fry even if you are not trying to breed them.

Before introducing fish into a pond make sure you have put a Water Conditioner/Chlorine Neutraliser into your new pond before introducing fish. We suggest to not overstock a new pond with fish too soon, the water needs time to balance and age. If you have just filled the pond, you will need to wait at least a week before introducing fish!!

Keep and eye on new fish for the first hour or so after they have been released into the pond to make sure they are settling in well.
