When someone explained this to me I thought they were insane....especially when the killies started to look "dead".

But it does work and no hassle.

i have had good luck with well water using ice to keep the water cool and using a battery operated aerator system for the boat . i have a home bait tank set up with a ton of killies. they eat fish food its funny as hell watching them all stare at me and me telling them that they are gonna get me a monster fluke.
