I stand corrected, I was converting C to F incorrectly (was forgetting to multiply by 1.8). Sorry.

OK, When I look at that chart I see 13+- PPM at 38 degrees and 8PPM at 60 degrees......So not quite half.....sorry I was 2ppm off!:shock: Ironically enough if you read the link that Beaverfan attached the chart with it states that at 77 degrees trout need 5-6 times as much oxygen as they would...

First of all, I never said my figures were 100% correct nor did I say I sampled water for a living. I think your figures for the 60 degree water are too high, more like 7-9ppm but I am not going to say you are wrong cause I don't know for sure, I was just generalizing. In regards to the plant...

I don't think it's quite that simple. 60 degree water has almost half of the dissolved oxygen content that 38 degree water does in PPM. Now if you combine other factors including low water, warm days and increased underwater plant growth the oxygen content can decrease even further. Given the...

Arctic, Did you try catching any of the jacks? I didn't have a chance to go back down today, too busy working.
