Troubleshooting

Fish showing signs of stress after water change

Ensure the correct dosage was applied relative to the volume of new water added. Check that the product was well-mixed into the pond.

Unsure of exact pond water volume

Use a flow meter on your hose or calculate volume by multiplying length x width x average depth in feet, then multiplying by 6.23 to get gallons (or use metric conversion of cubic meters to litres).
