Is that the norm? See my measurements. The yellow curve is before aeration, and the red curve is 2 weeks later with aeration. The uniform temp after aeration is about 4 deg F cooler at the shallow temps.

Edit: An average of all temps through the entire water column is essentially equal. 74.7 vs. 75 deg F.
