They will hybernate….and reamerge in the spring.
the water needs to be 24 inchs deep deeper is better.
if its less than that it can turn into one big ice cube and kill your fish.
you will also need to keep the water moving this will all help keep it from freezing over.
For overwintering it must be around feet deep.
