I live in the desert of Southern California desert, summer temperature often reach 100F-120F (43C-49C), we are planning to travel in the summer months from July to Sept, but what to do with fishes in that 50g tank? I do have a 500g 4ft deep tiled outdoor pond with god fishes, filtration, auto-feeder and water circulations.
I am debating to summer aquarium fishes (tetras, white clouds, livebearers, rams, gouramis, SAEs) in the outdoor pond, and collect them when we are back home, in late September. My worries:
I am debating to summer aquarium fishes (tetras, white clouds, livebearers, rams, gouramis, SAEs) in the outdoor pond, and collect them when we are back home, in late September. My worries:
- Would the outdoor water temperature be too high in the summer? Although gold fishes live and bred in that water ...
- Would the indoor fishes be too naive to survive outdoor with nature predators?
- How to retrieve them? This is the one that puzzles me, should I buy a huge net, say the size of a 50g tank and have them live in that net?
