Hey guys I'm new here. I have a 2.6 acre pond that varies in depth from 3 to 12 ft. Average depth is around 5 to 6 ft. I just purchased the land a couple years ago and have been working on creating my ideal fishery. I am currently trying to get the water quality correct. Below ar my current water test results.
Conductivity 24
Alkalinity 17.1
PH 6.83
Redox potential 171
I would like to get the alkalinity up and also clear the water quality up some. My question is, is it OK to add ag lime to raise the alkalinity and gypsum to clear up the water at the same time. If so in what quantities should I add them.
Also if it means anything. I have a 1 hp fountain aerator in the center pond installed about a year ago and 3 diffusers in the pond powered by a 1hp compressor that was installed yesterday.
Thanks in advance for any help. I am new to this and would appreciate a pros opinion.
