So my 2 year old pond had a plant explosion this year. I raked and raked and raked. Used some chemicals in spots. The result was I lost most if not all my trout and a few bigger bluegill this winter.
I’m going to use more chemicals to manage around my dock and swim area, but I also have some triploid grass carp on order. I can usually add water to my pond in the winter, which adds a lot of dissolved oxygen and usually prevents winter kill. I couldn’t this year due to a broken pipe.
So thinking about winter aeration. Plant and algae control. Probably have to be solar aeration. Any tips/help/ideas.
Brad 1.5 acre pond with LMB, BG, BCP, CC, FHM and lots of crayfish, unknown type. .5 acre pond with FHM and GSF. 12 acre irrigation reservoir that I don't know what to do with. New pond, roughly 1.5 acres. Pond Boss Subscriber.
