You guys did me in! You tempted my low tolerance level for trying crazy things.

I was in town yesterday and bought a gallon of pond dye, just to see what it would do.

Well, I think I "over-dood" it. I put about 12 oz., into my upper-most 1/3 acre pond. It has a maximum depth of about 7-feet, and an average depth of about 4-feet. It flows into three lower ponds at least 300 days a year. It rained lightly all of last night.

This morning, that pond looked like I'd put a whole gallon of Tidy-Bowl in a toilet. It worked its way down through three of the settlement ponds, and is now beginning to affect my 0.7 acre pond.

I'm embarrassed. I'm thinking we will move our neighborhood Memorial Day fish fry to a friend's farm.
