What is my best option?? Thanks for the help..


Your best option is in my previous post. Actually I don't think you have muck, but mostly silt/soil. And Muckaway will do nothing to silt/soil. It can't breakdown and digest silt or soil, only enhance decomposition of organic matter. I would hate to see you spend a lot of funds on something that would be largely ineffective.
