Also just picked up a male jack dempsy from city farmers. I'll see how he goes, but apparently they're tough enough....

Hi Meganjk,
Yes, the bulk of them survived and are doing really well. The only species which disappeared over winter were the guppies.
The white clouds and Buenos Aires tetras have a tendancy to jump out of pots for some reason, but are fine in the pond.
I have thrown a couple of discounted golden gouramis in the pond. I thought they had been picked off by a reef heron that had decided to stop by for a snack, but they are doing well. I'll fish them out before it cools off.
I've also started up another pot in the shade with Odessa barbs. Apparently they are even hardier than rosies, which frankly breed like flies.
