Nothing new has been intro'd to the circuit.

A re-route of the heater cord fixes the heat issue.Hopefully we get some warmer weather soon.
Mine is still running, but I left my net over the pond which caused the entire thing to really ice up in this cold weather. Also, my heater died so I had to get another today before the storm.

Pump is still going. About 95% of the pond, stream and waterfall are covered with ice...but it's still cranking underneath...which is pretty cool.

When I unfroze the bad heater today a few fish swam up to say hello, the water underneath wasn't even that cold. Assuming a lot of snow will melt into it and chill the water down a lot this weekend.
