Yes, fish do add weight to the overall weight of the water in a pond. This is because the fish has mass, which adds to the mass of the water. As the fish swims around in the pond, it displaces the water in the pond, which adds to the overall weight of the water in the pond. Furthermore, when a fish excretes waste or urine, it adds to the overall weight of the water in the pond. The additional organic matter in the water, such as food particles and other organic materials, also add to the overall weight of the water in the pond.

They add to the overall weight of everything in the pond. If the whole pond is

sitting on a big scale, then the weight increases when you drop in some fish.

Same with a big sealed container of air when you put some flying birds into it.

Will a tank full of water and a tank filled with water and fish swimming weigh the same on a scale?

That depends on the weight of the fish as compared to the weight of the water their bodies displace. If it's a heavy, dense fish, then the tank with the fish would weigh more. If it's a light, less dense fish, then the tank with water only would weigh more. This assumes that the water displaced has been removed from the tank, right? If you are adding the fish to the water then I think it should increase the weight regardless of the density of your fish. The question then might be, does the fish weigh less when it is swimming than it would on a dry scale?

If the fish is actually 'floating' rather than the fish has simply positioned itself at the surface of the water as they normally do there may well be something wrong. Check water quality daily and replace at least 10% every day if you want healthy fish.
