snrub, I am somewhat new to this but have used pond dye some for three years. How does it reduce productivity?
This is just from what I read, not what I know.
"Productivity" is considered anything growing in the pond. Dye reduces light penetration so reduces growth that depends on that light. Thus reduces productivity.
So the definition that bioligists use may not be what we pondmeisters think of as productivity (ie more fish).
That explanation is already beyond my knowledge level.
