For this reason, you must choose a design that complements your existing pond. Keep in mind that your fish live in your pond.

Fish are extremely sensitive to their surroundings; any changes could send them into shock and ultimately result in their death. They must remain in the holding tank for a minimum of twenty-four hours. To keep things as stable as possible, add water from the holding tank once more when you bring them back into their pond.
