Help! We lost our entire pond last year (our pond is 4000 gal. and one year old) Before we re-stocked in the spring, we medicated the pond with ???? it was green-blue and stains everything. Sorry, forgot the name. One of big fish died recently....looked like maybe mouth-rot????? I'm getting so discouraged. We have already stopped feeding as the water is about 45-50 degrees. My husband is the "keeper of the pond", but it is time for me to step-in. Where should my nitrates and ph levels be? I'd like to try a water change and maybe salt if that would be a good start???? How much salt would be ok for a 4000 gal pond? We also have numerous plants in the water that are starting to die. My husband insists on leaving them in so they come back next spring. I think they are making the water dirty and causing heavy algae buil-up??? Help. I don't want anymore of my fishies to die. Thanks, Jennifer in Duvall,WA
