Pond is looking good but!

Hi Rck, Welcome from another Missourian!

I would go ahead and buy the Koi Clay... online at
www.koiclay.com ... this stuff is wonderful - I would not be comfortable
in using kitty litter. That's just me, though. I would never be able to
tell the
difference in plain ole kittie litter and the other kind. Would end up with
a Big mess in
my pond.

Thanx! how much kitty litter should I use for a 1200 - 1400 gal. pond.
Is
that stuff around the plant stems also string algae ?

Rick, You have the dreaded "string alage". The easiest way to pick it
off
the
rocks is with a toilet brush. I had my hubby attach a toilet brush to a
handle. Lay the brush flat on the "stuff" and twirl the brush and it
will
come
right up. There is a something called String Alage Buster but I have
never
used it, and others on this board have also used kitty litter. Good
luck!!
