Re: [GSAS-Member] Upcoming Heat Wave Concerns?

["Betty Goetz" <haika@drizzle.com>]

Since my subunkins/koi/sarasa comets are in BLACK, above ground stock
tanks of 100 and 150g capacity on the SOUTH side of the house, I do have
some concerns there as I've been running them with no filtration other
than live plants. When it's in the 90's, I tend to need quite a bit of
water for my outside plants, so every afternoon I put the hose in each
stock tank and run new water in and use the overflow to fill ~ 30-40g
rubbermaid containers. Those are my watering tanks....I use 3 g buckets to
walk water to my fruit trees etc. It's lots of work but hey, it burns
calories (grin). Eventually, I'd love to be able to provide mechanical
filtration but I have no external outlets on that side of the house.
