I have been waiting to climb in there and get to raking but the water is not even warm enough to do that. Last year by this time we were swimming in shallow water.

I do get a lot of leaves in the pond, it is surrounded by trees. My neighbor said he has not used any chemicals this year and has had no FA, but I do know he has used chemicals in the past. I do not want to use chemicals if possible.

Someone needs to breed a cold water resistant tilapia. I would drive to oh to get them if I had to.
