Where's the fish?

I go to a customer's yesterday to clean a pond. this house has no grass in the backyard just paving stones.
He has a pond about 8ft long and about 5ft deep, with a waterfall. He tells me that he has 6 fish about 8in long. He has been feeding them and everything.
I start taking the water down so I can get the fish out easily and I get to the bottom of the pond and still no fish....I had emptied it so much that the wet vac was squealing. I ask him if he was imagining having these fish cause there isn't anything there!
He asked if they could be behind the waterfall or the lining.....listened for flopping noises, nothing.
Filled up the pond and left....got a call from customer all 6 fish have reappeared last night.
Too bad I didn't have my video camera for this drama!
