I have a huge amount of suspended sediments in the water. I have tried the bacteria pills, etc.
Any suggestions on how to remove the suspended sediments??

Thanks

Do you have filtration? Plants? If you do, it sounds as though you may need more. Do you have a lot of muck on the bottom of the pond?

You can use quilt batting in a place where the water is circulating to catch the debris. I have used in the skimmer where water will run through it. But it will need to be cleaned frequently, as much as several times a day.

Quick temp solution is a milk crate or barrel stuffed with quilt batting .' that has no fire proofing or any other chemicals. Create a depression in the batting and dump the water pump discharge into that

Best solution is a bog, sieve or rdf ..
