Default Water has milky appearance

this is usually biobugs looking for a home. sounds like something trashed your
biofilter. or, somebody dumped a ton of calcium in there. what are your water
quality parameters, ammonia, nitrites, nitrates and pH? Ingrid

Hi

We have a pond which ha been self sustaining for twenty years. No
filters or pumps, just pond plants and regular cleaning out of debris.
The fish are healthy and we have only ever lost one occasionally to
what we have assumed to be old age!.

The water has recently turned a milky colour and this has not happened
before. The fish seem OK but is there anything I should be doing to
correct this?.
