It's monday morning and the wind is very strong, pushing all the dead fish, DW and debris to the East end of the pond.
Now for the good news. Compared to before my areation start-up I had FA mats covering 40% of the pond. I had treated the mats with Cutrine Plus liquid about 6 weeks ago and the granular for the submerged FA about 4 weeks ago, yet the only results I saw were yellowed mats but still floating. Could it be there just wasn't enough oxygen to allow the dead FA to decompose and once I started aerating at 24 hrs there was, but still depleted the pond of enough oxygen to allow the fish-kill?
Not to be repetitive but I first noticed the small fish along the banks Saturday morning along with 1 big grass carp and 6 13" crappie (absolutely nothing Friday night, with a major storm with cold-front and 3" of rain in 12 hrs ending early Friday morning), then Sunday morning is when the bigger fish appeared.
Now being Monday morning, it appears to have stalled, meaning I'm not seeing more dead big or small fish, just about the same amount that I saw yesterday. Unless with all wind and the DW being pushed to the east end of the pond they're there but I can't see them. I'm trying to be optimistic.
I'm not sure how to add the actual pictures but here's the links to open them.
