What pH should I shoot for? 7.0-8.0 depending on the time of day that the reading is taken. Your biggest headache are the ducks. Things will only get worse over time as long as they are in there. If you can fence off a different area, and have a kiddie pool in there for them where any rainwater or surface water doesn't enter the pond, that is the best thing to do for the pond. A neighbors 1/4 acre pond was kept permanently muddy by 2 ducks. You have 12. If you don't have enough plants in the pond to completely utilize all the nutrients that they are dumping in there, I'd be testing the water for Coliform bacteria and salmonella.
