[Killietalk] Cool water killis again

[Martin Fourcade <fourcade30 at yahoo_com.ar>]

Hi Brian

"One thing that intrigues me about the
Argentina-Uruguay situation is 
that
while the temperatures are relatively very low at the
time the fish are
present in the pools, the temperatures that prevail
during the 
incubation
period of the eggs is substantially higher. This is
not the case for
conditions to which Notho habitats are subjected. The
other interesting 
fact
is that in that part of So. America there is still a
significant amount 
of
rainfall during the "dry" season. While this is not
enough to maintain 
the
surface pools that constitute annual fish habitats,
nevertheless, the 
soil
moisture content must be much higher than it is in
Notho habitats 
during the
"dry" season."

Well, I have placed (August)a "data logger" on a dry
Austrolebias pool.
We will be able to know wich kind of temperatures(max
and min) can support the eggs on summer.
I will check the data logger on February.
And I let you know!

Regards

Martin
