Dissolved oxygen and water temperature...The warmer the water the more air you need... Nigel Caddock NI There is a fundamental connection between water temperature and DO saturation. Other factors of course affect it too, notably height above sea level, but I believe its vital to understand that as water temperatures rise its ability to retain oxygen falls. Don't take risks - measure D.O. then use that information to manage the oxygen levels in your system! Dissolved oxygen is expressed in milligrams per litre, and based on long experience - all gained the hard way - we strongly suggest you use our Koi Safe DO levels in the end column as your guide.
