I dont think there is a chance in hell of the PP being in the water for more than 24
hours. But even if there is, use Jo Ann's method... add some peroxide and it will
instantly clear. the peroxide is broken down immediately by the PP and will be gone
by the next day for the next dose. every other day for 3 treatments.
I will tell you that if I was going to treat my pond I would turn off the filtration
(veggie filter) to prevent the PP from being used up by organics, then dose the pond,
wait 4 hours, drop in the peroxide, turn the filter back on.
found a pretty good page on bacterial infections

it isnt quantity, but how much it is spread out to oxygenate.
ahhha! tadpoles or toadpoles and that means there might have been an ammonia spike
when they were spawning. Ingrid
