New pond is up & running & gone the usual (not an unpleasent shade of)
green.

Pond is in the Southern half of the UK, 60% sunlight, 1600 gallons, part
raised, 4.5 ft deep.

Pump is rated at 15000 ltrs p/h and the flow is split 50/50 to circulate
water & to 9000 ltr biolgical filer. No UV

Only got about a 2 feet of fish, a large lilly & some oxyginators.

I'm not a huge fan of chemicals & although my smaller pond is crystal
clear, it's packed full of plants.

Question is - how long should I expect to wait for the water to start
clearing.


From your description, I'm not expecting it to last long. Pack this one
full of plants too. ) ~ jan
