Diluting fertiliser to use in a pond.
The pond is 40cm x 27.7 cm. Taking it as a cylinder that is 22 litres so allowing for the slight taper I settled on 20 litres approx.

Pond is very silty after fish introduced.
When I had my pond I'd Hoover the bottom with an old wet & dry vacuum cleaner 2 or 3 times a year.
