Need Heater for my pond...Where do I get it?
I am set up and I want to get the fish in sooner this year. I have 300
gallons. But some night are 40 F So I need a heater. I tryed using a deicer type but they are sealed and I can not bypass the thermostat in them cause its sealed and there set at shutoff at 50f.. I can get titanium 500 watt ones at pet store but there 80.00 and I need at least 2. I had a 500 watt in my tiny 50 gallon outdoor pond and it worked great but 300 gallons? Maybe next year I will try a gas water heter with pump .. but anyone have any ideas here? Thank you |

As long as the water doesn't freeze your fish will live. Especially at
this time of the year. DD DDD wrote: I am set up and I want to get the fish in sooner this year. I have 300 gallons. But some night are 40 F So I need a heater.

Yes I have some tropical fish. So I need a heater that will keep the
water at least 68 plus. Thank you |
