Posted: Sun Aug 30, 2020 7:22 am RES for winter
I have a 4000 gallon concrete koi pond. In the past I have been taking my turtles in for the winter. They are now too big to fit in their current aquarium and I want to try to leave them in the pond for the winter. I live in Toronto and we heat the pond to 40 Fahrenheit for the winter to prevent the pond from freezing. I understand that the turtles need a place to hibernate and because the pond is concrete I am looking for suggestions to allow them to burrow themselves for the winter. Looking for suggestions on what to build or place in the pond to allow them a place to be comfortable for the winter.
