Any ideas?

I'm new to the forum, so please forgive me if I'm posting wrong. I also had a problem with water temps going too high in my mini pond. I devised a "shade sail" in about an hours time and it works wonderful in keeping the water temps down. I purchased regular canvas and used wooden stakes to anchor it to the ground. I remove 2 sides when it's overcast out or when evening comes.
