I need some help! Pond is 5 years old.
Probably 1200 gallons.Light fish load. We have several of the original
fish & have
lost 2 or 3 over winters & 1 now & then.
But we've lost 3 in the last couple weeks.
My fav was dead today. Had water tested yesterday. They said everything
was good. Rather high PH,but not enough to klll fish. Today I had it
tested at another place. Same story. So I had water tested
at a 3rd fish store & Nitrates,Nitrites & amonia is good.Hardness is at
425. PH a whopping 9.4 & he said get fish out & change all water! Also
he said put in a cup
salt per 100 gallons We have a lot of plants & they look scorched on
edges. For the first time we have pea soup watr that won't clear with
Micro-lift. Micro lift is the only different thing we've added this
year.
Any ideas as to what we should do? Iris.
