What are the behavior abnormalties of trout and danger signals to watch?

0

Should trout be observed gathering near a spring or other water source when the pond is warm, it may be a sign of oxygen deficiency. If no spring is present, they may swim lethargically with their dorsal fins out of the water. Any of several methods of oxygenating the water may be successful: bringing in another water source from a nearby brook or well, aerating the water with a mechanical aerator, or recirculating the pond water letting the water drop several feet from a hose or spraying it into the air over the water. Aerators should be used during the coolest part of the day (night) to enhance the oxygenating process and to prevent excess warming of the water through the air which further decreases the oxygen.
