Aside from a cyber-hug, I don't have much to offer, since my teeny water
garden pales in comparison to what many here in rec.ponds have.

However, here's a thought: you might have murky water in your pond because
the whole water system was messed up, big-time, by the storm you described?

I awoke this morning and as every morning I went outside for a quick trip
to
the pond to feed the fish while coffee is making. To my horror not the
usual
nice sounds of water running down the falls, but the gurgling of a
submersed
pump in an just about empty pond. Fortunately there was about 3" of water
left for the fish. I filled it back up and the fish are doing fine. Even
with all this new water I still have murky water.

Last night we had tornado warnings resulting in bad lightening and rain
storm. Filter material I placed in the falls to clean some of the smaller
particles got turned around and caused the falls to run over.

What is really weird is I have dreams like this. I come out, the pond
empty
.... or fish laying outside the pond.... or all floating. I think I read
to
many rec mails. Anyone want to analyze this. Joann
