Thank you all soooooo very much...me and the son are about to start raking today... next week I'll see how much of the FA is gone and might get some of the granules if necessary...tilapia are soon to be in the picture as well as I know I won't be able to get all the FA out put I will keep every one posted on the progress...

I have heard great things on here with the lime/alum treatment too but don't know how expensive that would be or who to call...I would love to do it because I heard that improves visibility and nutrient overload in the pond...if anyone knows who does it close it me please let me know....thanks
