Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Water chemistry Concrete tailings??

Imagine your beautiful new pond just reached full pool for the first time. It looks fantastic but....first time you put fish in they all die! I think of it this way... Since your not sure what the stuff is, don't take the risk unless you get it analyzed so you know for sure. As a minimum, I'd get a sample of the stuff and throw it in a bucket of ground water from the pond site and see what happens to the PH...maybe toss in a couple of small BG as well. It may be inexpensive now, but I'm thinking it would be a very expensive problem to fix if things go wrong.

Just my 1 cent...
