nanoreefnate Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 waters never frozen in cali...not even at lake tahoe. Link to comment
Hero Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Ahem false. They have frozen before....(tahoe). But never for days. Link to comment
nanoreefnate Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 well ive been to tahoe for 4 years straight and from what ive read and seen from plaques and docents, tahoe has never frozen. only around emerald hay has it ever frozen over. also...please post a more descriptive pic... that could be from any continent. also, directly from Wikipedia. Lake Tahoe never freezes.[30] Since 1970, it has mixed to a depth of at least 1,300 ft (400 m) a total of 6 or 7 times. Dissolved oxygen is relatively high from top to bottom. Analysis of the temperature records in Lake Tahoe has shown that the lake warmed (between 1969 and 2002) at an average rate of 0.015 °C per year. The warming is caused primarily by increasing air temperatures, and secondarily by increasing downward long-wave radiation. The warming trend is reducing the frequency of deep mixing in the lake, and may have important effects on water clarity and nutrient cycling. linky to main article. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_Tahoe Link to comment
Hero Posted October 4, 2009 Share Posted October 4, 2009 Oh that picture was just showing places where it does freeze for days more specifically the north pole. Not tahoe. I'm glad that southern cal (the best part ) never freezes. Link to comment

KMG Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Nice! I really like your aquascape (not that you asked, but IMO a black backing on the tank would really bring out the 'nems). I look forward to following this tank build...I love coldwater setups, though I've never tried one myself. Link to comment
