Great post Bill.
Thanks!

I'll start by saying I take full responsibility for what I do to my pond.
OK I run my aerator for some many hours through the night. When I stop aerating the water temperature from 1-3’ deep is no more then 5F degrees difference then at my diffuser which is at the deepest part of my pond. I should be aerating enough to fit my needs, which is to run my aerator no more then I have to too save electricity and cut run time/noise of compressor.
