Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Help Dead Bream, Aerator and Water Chemistry

LL, sorry I stole the post with the Ken deal. I will creat another thread and apologize there as well. I also think if you can see most of the pond in the picture it is not 1/4 acre. In this case you may have put in a few too many. However this matter little after reproduciton occurs.

I do not think you want to hear this but I would not lose sleep if only that amount of lose and your visibility is increasing. I would continue with other routines. Fed maybe a smaller amount of fed until it cools a bit. Do not fertilize for sure. I doubt hay will do anything excpet possibly lower oxygen when it decomposes. You are correct in putting in diffuser instead of surfae aerator. Also for that size pond I would not put more than 20 lbs of hydrated lime at a time. However I suggest more ag lime than you put before more like a 1,000 lbs. would not hurt anything. Good luck!
