Frank, everyone talks of fertile water for TFs and for me I started off fertilizing the pond from the very beginning. I have to say for 3 yrs I had great fertile water and then something happened to cause excess detritus suspended in the water along with it being fertile with 10 to 12" visibility, causing me to worry to much. So I added some Alum Sulfate and cleared the water to 36" and have used fish food this year to fertilize where now I am at 26" of nice olive green water today. Hope these number of visibility might help you make a call on whether to add TFS or not.

Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.
