The viz in my pond came up a good bit this fall but it's far from clear; about 18 inches. Not real sure how much is bloom and how much is still silt stirred up by the Israeli Carp. Jar tests are inconclusive. Temperature varies widely due to the shallow nature of the pond. 37 two weeks ago and 44 today. The feed has slowed due to a lack of rain but still flows through at maybe 30 gal per hour at 54 degrees. There seems to be a small amount of FA on cover but it's not the usual bright green.
Amazing how different ponds behave. Interesting stuff this pond experience. Wish I had spent more time paying attention to it through the years.
