should I get a top floating heater or a submersible heater?

Normally I wouldn't recommend heaters, but Jan's right (if you're really
zone 4/5 - I used to live on the other side of lake Erie, and we were zone
5/6 - I would have thought you'd be no colder and get better protection
from snow cover). So submersibles are the best way to go. Floating
heaters just radiate a lot of the heat straight into the air.
