Floating Feeding Thermometer

Feed your fish based on water temperature
Color coded temperature scale shows when to feed and which food to feed
7½" Long
6 foot Nylon Retrieval Cord
Easy-view window with large scale for quick temperature readings
Pond Temperature is an important factor in fish health, algae build-up and overall pond health
A very special thermometer for use in outdoor fish ponds, especially Koi ponds.
Water temperature is a extremely crucial element of Koi keeping, as it determines the feeding schedule best suited for the fish.
Overfeeding can easily occur at certain temperatures, resulting in pollution of the water. And under feeding Koi will result in stunted growth, lack of vitality, and poor resistance to disease.

TJB-INC Tips:
- When the pond water falls below 55 degrees, stop feeding your fish. They will still beg to eat but their internal systems can not break down the food as well when the water is cold and you can do harm to them by giving in to temptation and feeding them. For more information on this topic and more, purchase Koi Health and Disease by Dr. Eric Johnson DVM
- The benificial bacteria (AquaClearer Extreme)that was keeping your pond water clear does not work below 60 degree water temperature. You will have to switch to AquaClearer Extreme Cold Water to break down sludge an de-nitrify the water until the water temperature get to 40 degrees. Below that, everything is dormant.

COLD WEATHER SOLVENT CEMENTING

Joining PVC Plastic Pipe In Cold Weather

Working in freezing termperatures is difficult, if unavoidable. Red Hot Blue Glue® is the finest available for extreme conditions. Red Hot Blue Glue® has EXCELLENT COLD WEATHER STABILITY for virtually all practical applications.

GOOD JOINTS CAN BE MADE WITH RED HOT BLUE GLUE® AT BELOW FREEZING

By following our standard instructions and using a little extra care and patience, successful solvent cemented joints can be made at tempertatures even as low as 10° F. In cold weather, solvents penetrate and soften the plastic surfaces more slowly than in warm weather. Also, the plastic is more resistant to solvent attack.

Therefore, it becomes even more important to presoften surfaces with Purple Primer. Longer cure times are also necessary. The cure schedules printed in our technical brochure allow a wide margin for safety, but for colder weather, more time should be allowed.

KEYS TO COLD WEATHER SOLVENT CEMENTING

Prefabricate as much of the system as is possible in a heated and ventilated work area.
Store cements and primers in a warm area when not in use and make sure they remain fluid. Store fittings in a warmer area if possible as well.
Take special care to remove dirt, moisture including ice and snow from the surfaces to be joined.
Use primer to soften the joining surfaces before applying cement. More than one application may be necessary. Aggressively “Scrub” primer into pipe surface until milky.
Be sure to apply solvent cement “ male-female-male” sequentially-per directions on can.
Wipe-off excess cement and solvent bead.
Allow a longer cure period before the system is used.
Read and follow all of our directions carefully before installation.

THE WORSE THE CONDITIONS, THE MORE IMPORTANT
IT IS TO HAVE QUALITY INSTALLATION!!
