Bill, thanks for the reply. We just had a pretty good rain so my water was quite a bit less clear than usual. I’ll let the APW go, and see what happens.
Thanks again,

9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep.
RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these.
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
