I have a smaller pond and waterfall, and it seems to stay pretty good as long as I keep it running, although I have on occasion put in a pool chlorine tablet to clean up the water. The summer heat seems to make it worse. "Jim" wrote in...

norraandchris, Not a silly question at all... There's no need to drain your pond, especially if it's 4' deep. One thing I would recommend, however, is to shut off your pump during the colder months. Why? Because in the pond you have thermal layers (different temperatures) wherby the water at...
