Theo, the pond is heavily spring fed does that affect your recomendation at all? also it seems the reason for me to aerate is to prevent future problems down the road?
I have read all the stuff on the forum about the aeration benefits BUT some of the negatives scare me such as killing some fish unintentionally with aeration and causing cloudy water, creating a bunch of work and high maintance PIA for my gray haired self.
to the high maintance end of it if I run the electric to the pond could I use a gast rotary vane pump as it appears that these have the longest duty life and least maintance issue?
thank for the advice
