That's easiest, but the OP pointed out that he didn't want to do that.
It's
pretty wasteful of water in dry/sunny environments. There's a bit of a
catch-22 - the more exposure to air the water gets the better the
oxygenation, but more evaporation, too.


Yes, in Phoenix now, hose water evaporates 2 feet after leaving hose.


At the temperatures you guys are getting, the only surprise there is that
it isn't more.
