Congrats. It's a lovely thing when the pond starts to clear, especially
when all the exercise you had to do was to exercise patience!

Easter weekend we built a 600 gallon pond. The water turned green a few
days
after we filled it. FINALLY after doing repeated complete water changes, i
just gave up and said "the heck with it". I know...... i know... patience
is
a virtue but who likes green water? Well i have left it alone now for a
few
weeks and by darn, it is clearing. YEAH!!!!! I can finally see my fish! So
there is hope for all who have green water!!!
BTW thanks to reading this group, I started giving my fish watermelon and
oranges. They LOVE them!
Thanks for all the tips everyone. I am now happily enjoying my pond.
