I understand the concept/controversy regarding running a pump during the cold weather: mixing the deeper, warmer water with the circulating, colder water. And while it may or may not be an issue for me in Louisiana, now that the thought is in my head, I'm gonna think about it none the less. Not worry so much, as just dwell there...
My pump is at the far end, away from the "waterfall-to-be," about 2 feet from the bottom. If I temporarily (cold months) relocated the pump closer to the other end (waterfall end), would that make any difference as far as the overall temperature (ie--less mixing)?
Or do I see another experiment in the making, here?? Hmmm...
