No argument, but whatever guard I might use at this time would need to be
as flexible as the wire. Stringing conduit or a rigid guard will require
the removal of at least one section of fence to allow for access for
anything rigid to be fed between the slats. Removing a section would be
better done in the fall when the plantings die back. The same "damage to
plantings" holds true for attempting to secure the wire to the underside
of the rail.

I'll take my chances for now and readdress the installation in the fall
when we'll probably move the tank inside.

I've no disagreement with that; it's not a real hazard in the short term
certainly and certainly wasn't intending to imply it was (which I think
you recognized as well). _Might_ get 1/2" plastic conduit thru but just
sayin', not that you need go do it now...
