Last year we had a terrible time with silt in the pond water. It was a while before we realized that it was the 'Aquasoil' that I had used to split and repot my waterlilies. Everything came out of the pond and was repotted in pea gravel that we washed off before planting the waterlilies. We then put egg rock on the top of the pea gravel to keep the koi from getting pea gravel all over the bottom of the pond.

I have been a little afraid of using kitty litter, although I have read good things for the most part from others and other forums. I would definitely 'test' the kitty litter before putting the whole potful of it into the pond.

Let us know how you make out.
