goldenswimmers Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 I remember reading some time back how bentonite clay is an awesome additive to ponds and is used by koi farms etc....I grabbed a little bag of it off ebay and well want to know if anyone here has used it before....seems to add alot of minerals etc to the water that fish rarely see out of the wild...aids digestion and brings colours out too....sounds like it would be good for most fish(dont quote me! )....any thoughts????

dditt Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 can have a softening effect depending on what you use and the composition of your water. So just tread carefully with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
