Hi, all

Things are going well on our project. The pond has been slowly but steadily refilling, and is within about 2' of final level. The windmill is up and installed, and one airstone is bubbling merrily. We need a valve to arrive from the windmill company before we can install the second airstone.

I have a question for you experienced people about pond color. Our water is clean, but green. Is that copper/minerals, most likely, or more like algae suspended in the water? (FYI: We notice green and brown colors in our bathtub (our water is all spring water) after heavy rains even after filtration, and we've had heavy rains as the pond has been filling. Since it hasn't overflowed yet, ALL the water in there includes the heavy rainfall water that we'd expect to be green.

Thoughts?


Thanks for reading and responding!
