Default How long can fish

Hi Cathy,
Cathy wrote How long can fish
stay in my pond without the pump working?

Depends on how hot it is today.
(Here predicted 111!!!)

Do you have a filter?
You want to keep it alive.
If you do you can run to Walmart
or any 'Mart' store and ask them for
a battery power bait pump. Fishermen
use them to keep their bait alive.

Put a sprinkler
head on your hose, place it so the water goes
waaaaaaaaaaay up and then falls into the
pond and run it on and off over the day.
Add a little dechlor at each sprinkling.

You can go to the store and buy a block of
ice. (Not in a little pond but I think 700 gallons
plus could handle a block of ice.)

good luck and let us know how it goes,
