Most problems occur in ponds that are not deep enough for fish to retreat to cooler and more oxygen-rich water," Allman said. "Hot water holds less oxygen than cool water. Shallow ponds get warmer than deeper ponds, and with little rain, area ponds are becoming shallower by the day. Evaporation rates are up to 11 inches per month in these conditions."
