I know....my water isn't clear...It's better now, but may have to add a UV.

that looks more like clay particles in suspension rather than green water algea...a U.V wont help with that. if 'dirt' is what it is and it doesnt want to settle on its own..a natural flocculant may help. they bind floating particles together so they can settle or get filtered out...
thats a heck of a waterfall.

Thanks for the info....I think it is more "dirt" that hasn't settled. It's looking better the more my filter runs. The Boat...LOL....When my son was 2, he loved going to Pap-paws fishin' in his boats "playin' Fishin". So Pap-paw gave him one. We hung it up on poles in the yard, so it'd Rock and Roll as he played in it. He's now a teenager (the days of Playin' Fishin' are long gone.) It has a lot of memories.....So I kept it and added it to my pond. Maybe one day the grandkids will enjoy it...LOL....(I know...You might be a "redneck" if you have a boat in your koi pond. LOL)

So pretty the falls and pond and cute idea w/ the boat :lol:
You never know, your son may sneak out into that boat some night when you're not watching for a sentimental memory or two...............it does show up every now and then w/ teens even if they don't want you to know about it :confused:
