Re: outdoor tubs, talks, random stuff

[Kathy Olson <kathy@thekrib.com>]

I have seen some fish survive in  deep ponds, but have only heard of tubs 
freezing.  I haven't tried any on the wiskey tubs to lend any experience.  
Dave Sandford is a good source on killi's/tubs and ponds.
Steve Ward too I bet knows a bit of the natives (and probably a bunch of 
other clubs members...feel free to speak up)

I have always been envious of hearing Gary Lange keeping his rainbows 
outside in the summer, I have never been that gutsy.  Afraid I am mostly 
Apistos, Julies, Dwarf Cichlids.

Welcome to Seattle!!  Great to have you here.
