This is just me but not knowing how old this pond is and he said it stunk real bad when he started up his air I would have slooooowed the air process way down. My pond is 65 years old. My neighbor just the other day who I finally met told me his grand father used to own my land back in the day. He told me that, the land I am on now had not been touched in 40 years!! I was like wow that's hard to believe. When I started my air up in my pond. I did 20 minutes, then next day 40, then 1 hour after that I left it on 2 hours a day for 7 days and then 4 hours for 2 weeks. Then to 6 for a week and finally 8 hours a day and kept it there. I had no problems that I know of. Ted I am sure is correct it was more than one issue more than likely, but from what I have seen in these older ponds when it comes to air in them patience is a virtue for sure!! Good luck buddy hope the worst is over now!

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
