I have a one acre pond supplemented with well water and a diffuser system. I feed 10 months out of the year Purina Fish Chow anywhere from 2 - 5 pounds a day. I have anywhere from 3 - 9 geese on the pond daily (dropping their own nutrients). With this in mind what do ya'll think about still following a rigourus fertilizing schedule?? Is feeding the fish and fertilizing too much or should I hold the course and maintain a bloom?


If wishes were horses, dreamers would ride.

I must admit that I am not a fan of the Catfish \:\)

Do a sechi disk test. If you don't need to fertilize, don't do it.
