I wouldnt say there is alot of stuff on the bottom of the pond. We
completely cleaned the pond out, drained, washed refilled, the works
around April 20th. I expected to get an algage bloom after doing this,
but I also thought a UV would clear it up faster than this. I did have
a couple of small pots turn over a while back but nothing major. The
tutle is gone, we relocated it last week, no more turtle turds. Ill do
a water change this weekend on both ponds and see if it help any.
Should I add de-chlor' if Im only doing a 10% change?

==========================
I don't, but then we have very little chlorine in our water supply. I also
use a nursery type spray head on my hose to degass the water as it leaves
the hose and sprays across the water. If you're not sure - better to be
safe than sorry, use the dechlorinator.
