Need advice on the following:
1) Sun will hit the pond from 10am to 1pm after that totally no sun. Estimate that temp may hit 30 degrees or more on certain "extremely hot" months. Can TVR tolerate such heat? too hot for TVR if you wan to groom them or keep them long this temp you have 30degress is a no no. but can install two fan or a chiller to bring down the temp
2) Fumigation done once every fortnight but Patio area is elevated and pond is surrounded by wall. Height of wall more than 6 feet. Will fumes kill the ranchus?no fish will died if the fumigation medi go into the water.
3) How many TVRs can i house in this setup?
need to see the size of TVR you are keeping
4) Can keep other small fishes like platys with TVR?
better not keep any other fish in the same tub with you TVR
Many Thanks
