I'm confused as well about when to run aeration (well actually I'm confused about a lot of things but at this moment it is aeration run time that is confusing me the most). I read through the archive thread regarding aeration including links post by Ewest. They seem to indicate that the lowest point for dissolved oxygen (at least during the summer) would be in the wee hours of the morning. Hence the need for aeration during the evening/early morning. I think that DIED runs his aeration system at night/early morning.

Cecil knows what he is doing so I know that he has a reason for running his aeration from dawn to dusk. Cecil can you elaborate on this?

Unless I missed something I didn't see a lot of discussion in the archived aeration thread about when to run aeration. Did I just miss the discussion?

From the archives Aeration simplified


From the same archive...SRAC "Pond Aeration"7 see page 7 "When to aerate."
