fertlilized pond question? - 04/18/15 01:22 PM
I added fertilizer to the pond and water visibility went from 36" to 22" in one week. And with all the rain and water additions from the well (pond came up 3"). And after 3 weeks time the visibility seams to have stabilized @ 26". So I am thinking of adding more fertilizer but I am nervous about it. So now before I add more of the fertilizer, I thought I might try organic (alfalfa pellets). So any recommendations from you, before I mess things up and like Dave said " not a pond master till u kill some fish". So what do u guys think
Note, I have only seen one dead cnbg since I started this pond, but after fertilizing I have seen 1 to 5 floating FHM per day. maybe nothing to do with it, there were a lot of FHM stocked in this pond. All dead FHM were big minnows.
Thanks
