Since there was only the one string that I could find on supercooling, is it still in the hypothesis stage or is it "real"?

I am even more confused if you are suggesting bleeding off the air when in fact getting air in the pond and keeping some surface water open was supposed to be the concept of having aeration, wasn't it?

Initially I was told I needed aeration to get the fish through the winter to avoid winterkill and now you are suggesting I not use the aeration in the winter?

Deeper ponds and lakes have managed for eons with no artificial means and I thought aeration was applied to a pond that is too shallow to survive on it's own?

I know there are people on here who use their ponds commercially and want things perfect for maximum fish production. I would like to have fish simply to have them and would just like them to survive and have what oxygen they need and the removal of obnoxious gasses that I thought the circulation also helped with?
