    How do you keep the water warm during the winter time? Are you running any heaters?

    • @TobiasHolenstein
      @TobiasHolenstein  3 роки тому +2

      So it turns out that I don't need to run heaters in my pond because I live in the Los Angeles area and it doesn't get super cold where I live. Also all my fish are cold water fish. I did try to run a few 500W aquarium heaters in this pond during the first winter that I had it but then I learned that I didn't need them and also they were super expensive to run.

      @@Gobrian44 I didn't really have any rust. I think maybe there were some spots where the metal was a little brown, but I didn't see any significant rust. I live in the Los Angeles area so it's a pretty dry climate, although I imagine that having it inside a garage will probably create some humidity, so I would maybe look into some kind of humidity control to protect the inside of your garage as well as the pool pond
