I also use a temperature sensor in the water stream to set the temperature (I use a Polder oven thermometer with a temperature alarm setting; it's an older version of this one: http://shop.bakerscatalogue.com/detail.jsp?id=4323&pv=1143234946062). It works well, and also helps me to determine if temperature differences are triggering spawning in my fish, as I can track the temperature far more accurately than just by feel.

Our bathroom faucets have an insert which unscrews (a wrench might be needed the first time) and then you can screw in an adapter which connects to a hose. I use a "y" adapter so that I can get the water temp right before shooting it into the hose. This is a picture of the parts. The metal thingy screws into the faucet, the green thingy screws onto the metal thingy, and the hose goes on the green thingy. http://groups.msn.com/rsfish/shoebox.msnw?action=ShowPhoto&PhotoID=349 Rachel _______________________________________________ AGA-Member mailing list AGA-Member@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-member _______________________________________________ AGA-Member mailing list AGA-Member@thekrib.com http://lists.thekrib.com/mailman/listinfo/aga-member
