It was about 1.25 acres. The pond was gin clear because the FA was sucking out all the nutrients that should have gone to phytoplankton. When it was sprayed, the dying stuff added nutrients for it's own regrowth. This was just West of Fort Worth in a limestone area with super high alkalinity. Once it gets a good start you can't stock enough tilapia to beat it back.
It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
