- filters are off
- water was staning while it was being fixed for about 10 days
- hardly any water circulation no UV light

Pond is green, visibility about 40cm, 25 little koi that are in now very happy.

Since Sunday morning, filter working 100%, UV light on and happy.

How long should I wait to see if it clears before taking other measures?]]> Algae / Green water / Blanket weed Mon, 09 Nov 2009 06:56:24 GMT http://koionline.forumotion.com/algae-green-water-blanket-weed-f47/green-water-challenge-t1075.htm#6421 http://koionline.forumotion.com/algae-green-water-blanket-weed-f47/green-water-challenge-t1075.htm http://koionline.forumotion.com/algae-green-water-blanket-weed-f47/gin-clear-water-t1044.htm Ernst
For all of us who have been fixating in 'gin clear' water..(most of us!)
I found this article very interesting and this summer I'm going to give it a try!

It's great to know that there are so many koi hobbyists out there that share information, advice, tips etc With spring here, algae will soon become a problem in my pond. I have read somewhere that a Pleco can go a long way to solve string algae problems. I also know that Pleco's don't like cold temperatures. My pond is 3000 litres, 1m deep, bio ...

However, we want to see our fish. Isn't that what Koi keeping is all about?? Very often, the quality of green water is much better than crystal clear water. The reason why the water turns green is because of the accumulation of nutrients in the ...

Jy het aanbeveel dat ek die Potassium Permanganate gebruik, wat toe die laaste kois deurgetrek het. Hulle gaan nou goed aan en lyk al baie mooi. Ons dammetjie vat so 3000 liter water en is dus nie groot nie. Ons maak gebruik van 'n bio-filter sisteem.
