Approx 1500 fish killed due to rising temperatures causing an explosion of algae.
Volunteers from the Association of Wirral Angling Clubs tried to clear the ponds, working shifts to pump gallons of fresh water into the lake to oxygenate it until the RSPCA stepped in to help.
A local council spokesman said. " We are working closely with the Assoiation of Wirral Angling and the Environment Agency to improve conditions."
==============================================
Lets hope they sort this out for the sake of the fish and anglers from our region. 1500 fish is a lot to lose from any pond.
