Hi, thoughts please on this one. My well established, heavily plant filled wildlife pond has just crashed into a stinky effluent smelling soup.
Is it likely to be the long spell of hot dry weather that's the cause? Warmer water, less oxygen, dying plant material, rot, bacteria bloom, oxygen drop further? Water level probably 3 inches below normal.
Any remedies? Air stone? Top up with a hose? Remove plan material? Pond vac?
Fill it in?
Thanks
