Re: [Killietalk] Killietalk Digest, Vol 49, Heat Losses

I have had to almost give up on Killies since moving back to Eastern WA from Seattle. Only a very few can make it through the worst weeks when its 115F plus outside. I have air conditioning but it still reaches up to 88F inside.

The suggestions to get air conditioning is so original. Not everyone has a few spare grand to have a modern climate control system. I just try to work with species that demonstrate the ability to live through the worst of the heat. This one of the reasons I specialize in Discus since they thrive in high temperatures. Still, I miss not having to worry about my Killies in the Summer.
