Why do you think the cloudiness is suspended organic matter and not a heterotrophic bacterial bloom?
For a bacterial bloom to occur, two (2) conditions must be met.
1) a high organic load (which this water feature obviously has).
2) a high level of Dissolved Oxygen to support the respiration requirements of a bacterial bloom usually obtained through appropriate aeration (which this water feature does not have).
