figures,, AFTER I get home from water pond store, I test my water & find it
is very high in PH/ alkaline.

calling around the stuff they make for ponds , is about $14. per pint & I
would need 4 of them for a 3000 gal pond, ( yes??)(was told they treat 800
gal).

anyway.......can I use the regular swimming POOL chemicals in my pond???
first off I have NO fish or plants in yet ( just filled it ).
if , so how long before it would be safe to put fish in?
or is there a cheaper alternative????

Before you do that, just what was the ph?
