I have a pond that is in full sun from daybreak til dark. Last year the
water temps soard to 88F and I lost a lot of fish. The pond is about 8x6
and is approx 18" in depth. What are some ideas on keeping the water
cooler. I'm thinking more depth. btw I live in WVa, so its not like I
live near the equator.

What are some of the tricks that the people down south use?
