At least, I would say they have to get used to it. Even when I had clear
water for a while and then it turned green, it shook them up for a while
when I conquered the algae and could see them again. The fish in the new
pond still aren't happy about it.
I think they are more startled when you come up to the edge of a clear
pond. Think of it from their point of view - with a murky pond, you
aren't as clearly seen as a big threatening moving object.
