Default Problem with Greg's DIY filter


"MISSYMAGICGIRL" wrote in message
...
I made his filter as designed. I used two because I have a 3000 gph pump.

My
water is cloudy, still dirty and barely see my fish! I have even changed

some
of the water and added filter materials and still no improvement. I am

ready to
buy a premade filter which I was going to at first.

What am I doing wrong?? Any idea's??

Sacha...welcome back...If you remember I am the CEO of Shareholders Pond,
also known as MyDamnOrangePond, and OnOrangePond. I think, to date, I have
had the "cloudiest" pond in rec.ponds history. I tried numerous solutions
for clearing my water and only one worked...plenty of plants...and more
importantly...STOP MESSING WITH IT. Get a cup of coffee and sit by the pond,
BUT DON'T TOUCH IT. Give it time. I stopped messing, and in 2-3 weeks, I now
have nearly 3 feet of visibility in my pond.
