The ammonia level in my pondis still to high and I don't know why!
Inside or outside pond?
Outside!
Have you tried Amquel or similar product?
Yes
If so, are you using a test kit that will test correctly when using said product?
Actually no!!
Then you don't really know if you're using enough. ;-)
What's the temp of the pond,
Iced over except fpr the one spot I deep open!
If it is that cold, my guess would be you've got something decomposing.
When did you stop feeding?
KH I don't test for!
ph = 7.5
My suggestion would be to get a salicylate test kit for the ammonia and a
KH test kit that will show if your pH is stable. Let the water warm to room
temp before testing.
Small water changes will always help. ~ jan
