Titanium heaters. Not too big and extremely accurate.

Let's take up a collection- we can all chip in, the pond will be toasty, and I'll adopt the monsters that outgrow people's tanks, lol! :)

The pond is about 1,500 gallons- 8'x8', and about 3' deep. A big drawback for keeping it warm is that it's built into the covered deck area, so no help from the sun. I'll look into it a bit and see if it can happen (though I can tell you I don't have $800 to drop on it!). I have spa heater/equipment on the side of the house from the previous owners, and I"ve always wanted to mess with that a bit to see if it could be flushed out and hooked up to the pond (it's gas, so I don't think it would be too outrageous to run)but haven't gotten around to really trying it. After Ike hit, I put my 3 pacus and my RTC (all were in the 24"-26" range) into the pond, and they were great out there until the fall and the temp got too low.

Sorry guys, I found a place for them.


If you want the fish though, they're all going to a store in the Humble area. "Fish Keepers" is taking them all and they'll be for sale there
