Hey Cecil,
That's a bunch of Chara right there! I thought I had hard water??? I guess not! Course my pond has not seen any kind of chemical treatment in a long, long time so it more than like freaked out when I put that CP in there!!

I think I caught it by surprise. Along with about 4 grass carp to keep up with the rest it has worked great for me!! I also used 2 one pound packages of CFLO through out the summer. I think that is helping too with my mucky bottom. Not sure if I will have to treat next year or not but I am sold on CP for sure! If I need it again I will have it handy!!
