I guess losing fish to predators is part of it, i just saw my first Herron on the pond a few days ago, he was standing on one of the floating islands probably picking off frogs. he's probably been there before, but i didn't see him.
I'm not sure if i want to use the thermo. in the winter like you are, or just run it nonstop.
Are you planning to raise 10lb bass like Dwight in Minn.?(Aquamax with ball bearings)!!!


Aquamax with ballbearings?! Good one!

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
