I live in central Oklahoma and I am seeking some advice on where to obtain a water test kit. Water is clear and can see 2 foot down. However it hasn’t been this clear since I bought the property. Before I found this forum and subscribed to pond boss magazine I read a article by the Oklahoma Department of wildlife conservation. The article suggested that putting straw barley hay bails in the pond upto 5 bails, and let it do its thing. Well that’s what I did back in May and now it’s super clear. I would like to keep it that way and so I would like to get a good test kit and learn how to maintain good water chemistry. Any guidance would be great. Thanks, Daniel

Did you get your water tested?
Theres a few options besides a HACH test kit, besides it also gives you a Quality Assurance to have an outside test done. Noble Foundation,Oklahoma Sate University Extension, or local water authority can help give you the QA test.
