Some of the conditions that must be met for a population to be in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium are:

1. The population must be very large.

2. There must be no
migration and population must
be isolated.

  1. There must be no mutations.

4. There must be random
mating, which means there are no mating preferences.

Since there are no migrations, mutations, the new alleles cannot enter the population and the population will not change over time.

Answer:

Gene pool of the population at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium remain constant over time.  

Explanation:

According to the Hardy Weinberg principle, the allele and genotype frequencies in a population remain constant in absence of factors of evolution. Here, the population should be randomly mating to be at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium. Since the moth population is at Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium, it should have constant allele frequencies from one generation to next.
