BROWN TINTED WATER – My water has a brown tint to it. What product can I use to fix it?
If you have brown or tea-colored water, try using Activated Pond Carbon. Brown water can be caused by leaves and other debris within the vicinity of the pond. Activated Pond Carbon is designed to clear the water from the extra nutrients that are introduced to the pond through the surrounding debris and conditions. For effective results, the carbon treatment should be changed about every 2 weeks.
