I am in upstate NY. I have 2 small muddy ponds that I need to clear. Where do I buy the chemicals?

A local Co-op / farm-feed store is a good place to start.

We have gypsum for muddy ponds. Most people use our pulverized gypsum. You can order on line at http://www.usagypsum.com/category/1.aspx

Carol,

I did an Internet search using the item I was looking with the word "suppliers" and my state and found everything I needed from a chemical supplier in a nearby city. All I had to do was go pick it up. No offense to the above supplier but shipping could cost you more than the product itself. On the other hand since PA borders NY you may not be that far from him.

Also as far as alum you may get a lead from your local water treatment plant as they use quite a bit of it.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Welcome to Pond Boss, carolrees! Great to have you here! smile

Would you be able to post some good pictures of your ponds? That is often helpful in allowing the knowledgeable folks here to offer better advice for your situation. Plus we're all suckers for pictures - words are okay, but pictures make the post!

What are your goals for the ponds? How are they used now? How old are they? What sorts of fish? What is the water source? Lots of other questions, but those typically make it a lot easier to give you guidance on your pond management strategies.

Again, welcome! Stick around for more input and see if you can take a minute to provide us with some more info about your ponds.
