For whatever reason, Dimilin in any form was difficult to find

Finally picked up a small bottle of it (treats 960 gallons). So,
here's the issue with that: The instructions say to use two
treatments 14 days apart. Which would be perfect if my pond was
480 gallons--it isn't, it's between 500-600 gallons. So, I dumped
in enough to treat 480 gallons yesterday and plan on doing the same
in two weeks. (Which would use up the entire bottle.)

I know I'm slightly undertreating but I didn't really want to spend
another $10-20 just for another couple of tablespoons in two weeks.

Does this sound reasonable to the more experienced among us or am I
just setting myself up for yet another infestation in the middle of
August? (The current infestation is not currently widespread; only
one obviously affected fish.)

You could have dropped the level of the pond so there was only 480 gallons
of water. ;-) Perhaps for the 2nd dose. ~ jan
