brown water

14 years ago

I have a natural pond fed by a slow spring. It is always cloudy due to the fish stirring up the bottom. It has not rained for about a week or so. It has rained for about a day. I now have brown water that gets ccloudy when the fish turn up the bottom. Anyone have a clue why this is happaning.

Koi pond? They love to root around and stir up the bottom, just how they are.
