Pea soup is good. Feed the bottom of the food chain. We fertilize every ten days during the growing season. This has many benefits, many of which are peppered throughout this site on other threads. We lime every winter and fertilize every growing season.
Our pond is deep(22ft) and shaded by large hardwoods. Because of the shade, we're able to set the feeders to feed multiple times per day. This helps, but my biggest worry is always good water color.
