I understand starting up the aeration is to start @ 15 min and double each day. But due to several interruptions, I have not been able to stick to this timing and I have gotten to where I have run it for two hrs for a couple of days not being able to increase the running time. Any problems with the situation to where one is stuck @ two hrs per day for several days? 3 acres and 6 diffusers.

Very likely not a problem with 2 hr run time this early in the summer when stratification is not well established.

I have been running mine at the 2 hour mark for about a month now. Have not had any issues. Like Bill said most of your water is still pretty cold / cool so not a issue. I am however going to move mine up to 4 hours this weekend.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!

From my back ground in petro chemical, water holds the most oxygen around 4*C. At that point water will expand when the temp drops below that and will expand when the water gos above that.
