Green Water or Cloudy/Brown Water?
In order to correctly identify if you have green water or cloudy/brown water, a
settlement test should be carried out.
Take a jar of pond water and allow to settle for 24 hours.
Green Tinge - If your jar is showing mostly green tinged water or has green
particles floating in it, you most likely have a bit of an algae problem (follow
the green water trouble shooting guide).
Brown Tinge / Water with Sediments - this indicates that you have organic
debris decomposing in your pond. This can be particles from dead leaves,
twigs and other plant debris that are breaking down (follow the brown water
trouble shooting guide).
The UV Bulb is on But My Pond is Green
There are a lot of different factors which contribute to this type of issue and it
may not be the UV system at fault. The UV clarifier will work to maintain rather
than transform water quality so you may need to add treatments to clear poor
quality water or consider a heavy water change.
Algae growth in water can be due to high phosphate and nitrate and green
water is heightened in the summer period due to the extra sunlight so it is also
advised that a water test is carried out.
If the UV light is working then the product is functioning correctly. The position
of the pond should also be considered, as this affects how much sunlight is
directly falling on the pond. Algae growth is very likely to require a treatment to
resolve the growth. Consider purchasing the All Pond Solutions Green Water
treatment or Blanketweed treatment.
The orientation of the garden can also be an issue; south facing gardens
inevitably get more sunlight and can cause ponds to be greener in the
summer if exposed all day. Try and shade your pond water surface, plants are a
great way to do this.
My Pond Water is Cloudy/Brown
1. Make sure the unit is turned on 24 hours a day. Continuous running is
needed to maintain a clean and healthy pond.
2. Remove pond waste and leaves and carry out a partial water change. If
sludge is present treat your pond with All Pond Solutions Anti Sludge
treatment.
