Re: [Killietalk] Heat losses

[Scott Davis <unclescott at prodigy_net>]

In the cool months Drummond's 20 gallon tubs. maybe at water changing time when they are less full, could be slid onto pieces of styrofoam. Old fish shipping boxes need never die. The floor might also be the place to overwinter temperate zone North American killies, other NA natives and the Goodieds which may benefit from a cool period.

90F "in the rain" today, 88F in the fishroom...
...so far Australe & a.ahli seem "peachy" enough, as do most FP's & Epis...
But many of aphys really don't like it, esp the primegenium,,,a entire
winters worth of squeezing pairs from the coeleste, already went belly up
back in May's 90's spell...and now my surviving austrolebias are about to
hit the trading circuit or AB lest those get wasted also...praying I don't
find another "premature" bag of peat (forgot heat really shortens incubation
for these annuals)...
The concrete floor suggestion is compelling, if nothing else for my peat to
sit on (which hasn't been moved from the top shelf since winter)

Thanks all...KC
