I saw a thread on the white cloud mountain minnow and it got me thinking if I could get some of those for the stream on my pond.... And move them into a 20 gallon for the cold months..

It would work oscarfan they like coldwater they come from streams in asia. I would really advice to take them in before it got to cold though... I would send them to you lol my dont deserve to sit in my tropical tank... it is staying around 79-80 so they can tolerate it but i think they would rather have it colder

Just some info: I put some white clouds into my pond, and they managed to survive the winter (i live in NY).

They DID come from Asia. The fish is extinct in nature.
