Pond Heater

[420benz]

Water Temp. is 35 Deg. Fish are just hanging out in one place not moving. If the pond water was wormer maybe the fish would like it better and move around more.

The fish are doing what they are supposed to do now in the "chilly hours and minutes of uncertainty",lol! I love Donavan!
No heater needed

OK No Heater.

Right. I do wonder though how your water is 35 degrees in Georgia. Ours is about that in Chicago and we're in the midst of one of the colder, snowier Novembers that I can remember.

It was 27 last night

 

[Lisak1]

27 degrees outside? It was 20 here. How deep is your pond?

We got smacked even down here, temp dropped to 46f south south Florida. Broke a few cold records.

Pond has finally cleared up.

[420benz]

Yes cleared up.When the installer put the large stones around the pond they were full of brown dirt.It rained the next day and all of the dirt washed into the pond. So i emptied the pond, filled it up but all

Oh, OK. I was confused because this thread is about “pond heater.” I think you have another thread about water quality— maybe you could post this update there, for continuity.

Are you measuring air temp or water temp?

Are you measuring air temp or water temp?

I wondered the same - hence my questions earlier.

 

[420benz]

The last measurement was water Temp. Today the Air Temp is: 59 The water Temp is : 55.

You said the water temperature was 35 degrees on Wednesday - that's 4 days ago. Now it's gone up 20 degrees? Are you in a heat wave? Water temperatures that fluctuate that much in a short period of time would be problematic for fish.
