What species would you all suggest in a cool water 30 ish gallon mini pond? Noticed tonight that my red daphnia culture has adjusted to the theoretically permanent muck bucket pond I have going for them. Turns out the over winter didnt work for last years "russian red" culture for some reason. Maybe -22⁰ a few times and -10⁰ over a dozen times was a little too cold for the eggs to overwinter? Current happy daphnia starting to produce. I moved one of my inkbird bluetooth temperature sensor to the pond last night to see the daily fluctuations. My assumption is that 46⁰-70⁰ could be my daily water temperature range depending on air temperature up here. The 10⁰-15⁰ temperature swing is typical for the ponds idlve done in the past up here ar 9,100'. This set up has been great for daphnia, flag fish, and cherry shrimp in past years. Temperature graph of water temps in the pond for the past 24 hours. The on hand groups of cooler (but maybe not that cold) water species in the fishroom are: Highland Swordtail Black Prince Goodeid Black Madaka Ricefish Daisy's Ricefish Clown Killies Dwarf Orange Mexican Crayfish Red Cherry Shrimp Panda Loach Scleromystax sp. (C112) Baianinho II All suggestions welcome I have a solid 3 months of tubbing ahead if im lucky.- 9 replies
