Ice borers can teleport from the north pole to the south pole. There has been some sightings of the ice borer in the Himalaya Mountians providing heat for the Yetti shin diggs!

Fear the ice borer!

I believe those Ice borers cant be counted as natives since they were brought here by Ufos a couple of years ago (see the documentary on the History channel if you dont believe me!).

Bass_Cats, I sure hope that you meant the air temperature does not get below freezing for long! Pure 100% freshwater is NOT in a liquid state at that temperature! You can probably count the fish on one hand with fingers to spare that survive minutes inside of solid ice!

Yes, i was talking about air temp. I think i'll give it a try with my pond. It only freezes about 6in in the winter. Some albino dojos would look awesome, or some albino channel cats.
