my pond was just becoming, clear enough to see the bottom, still a green
tint, but could see down several feet.
I had a 'kit' of sludge digester,ultra clear etc.. so I used some of it,
since I already paid for it(found out about bzt afterward).
the pond has since turned very cloudy, been 2 days... still cloudy...
I cannot think of anything else I did to make it turn that way. all the
other pond tests are ok,, ammonia, ph, etc etc.
does this normally happen???

I use UltraClear and have never had it make the water become cloudy. Could
dirt be getting into your pond? Is it at ground level?

no dirt getting in. pond liner edge is higher than surrounding area.. there
are 'hillys' behind that., but water would run, in LOW area off to side of
pond before in it.

the pond is still murky!!
I don't get it
