I think I'm going to change my system a bit.
I still have two IBCs (international bulk carriers) and think it's time to make a bigger system. The small amount of water is heating up so quickly that I think I might be in trouble if I get too many days like this in a row.
Today was 40c + and the water reached around 35c. As far as I know that's around the upper limit for my fish. I'll lose a lot of heat over night, but if I get a few days like that in a row I could making my fish miserable or even dead.
The best way to fix this would be a lot more water, and some shade to cover it.
I think I'll start work on a system upgrade.
