When I pulled out my plants to feed them I decided they needed some more

pottery and thought what the hey - I should say I didn't think at all. Long
story short my pond now looks like milk and it has been quite a few days
with no signs of settling out. The fish could care less but I would like
something a little less... artificial looking. What can I add to the water
that will not hurt the fish and plants but that will help precipitate out
the silt? Donna

P.S. Nice to have the room back

Water changes or you could use a flocculent, like AccuClear. Course if it
just settles to the bottom and isn't sucked out into a filter the fish will
most likely just stir it up again. ~ jan
