Update: I'm happy to report that after the last water change, the pond
popped and I walked out in the AM to find the water clear enough to see the
top of the plant baskets at the bottom and the pH was 8.0! ;o) ~ jan

Oh How, big sigh I was actually doing this, add BS to raise the buffer,
add acid, lowered pH to about 7.5-8 for a week and back up it would go.

(Do you know where your water quality is?)
