During the coldest parts of our winters, so far, the pond has gotten down to the mid-30's -- the deepest section is a few degrees warmer. This year, in addition to the pond, I will be keeping a few fish in a 300 gal Rubbermaid stock tank, which naturally will be above-ground and exposed. I plan to insulate it [though no plans for how, yet], but was wondering what kind of difference I could expect in the water temp. for an insulated tank...... I know, there are too many variables involved for an acurate calculation, but just looking for a ballpark idea.
Trying to make plans.....
