How cold does it get in Ohio. Got to be pretty similar to ny right?

Id say similiar to ny as were not that far apart...my pool is located in my basement so its actually the warmest place in the house winter time and the coolest in the summer when the ac is on. Yearly temp of the pool with no heater is 68-74. If you run alot of submersible pumps you may actually have trouble keeping it cool enough in the summer for some types of sharks. I also run a dehumidifier about 5 ft away from the pool 24/7. This gives off heat aswell and takes care of any moisture issues.

Thank you so much wednesday13. I think i will be looking into a pool...Do i have to be carefull of the manufacturer of the pool or will any stiff pool work? I worry about chemicals in the pool. What did you use for filtration? I was thinking of filling the 300 gal rubbermaid with live rock. I already have about 200+ lbs to put in it.
 
Intex brand pools are pretty good and cheap thats what i have. I also recommend putting an additional pond liner over top just for assurance. 45mil EPDM firestone is one of the best, this is whats in mine aswell. I run overhead filtration using rubbermaid totes and a 6 drawer tower. All homemade and it works pretty good. For u being salt id use the biggest euroreef skimmer i could find and all that rock you have and its smooth sailing. I love how easy salt set ups are. Rock and a good skimmer and ur good to go :) good luck!
