any one here have a clear understanding on the mechanism of this new chemical treatment being applied on lake minnetonka.
tonka had a sever algae bloom this summer and im currious if it could have been atributed to this treatment. lake was super clear this spring and early summer. clarity on tonka is partialy due to daphnia. i have a tough time believing that daphnia is not affected as they filter feed the same stuff as zebra mussles. and since we are on topic, i also have tough time justifing spraying any treatments that have life span longer than the flow time it takes for our water to hit the gulf. amazing some areas are spraying herbicieds and insecticieds with almost 2year life span! long enough to sterilize corals regardless of dilution.

ohh. and lower lake in many spots has 20ft+ vis right now ...last week in aug 2013. its hit or miss,but all back of bays seems to be super clear. not typical for this time of year. im going to try to post some vids if i can. as i hardly believe it myself. one spot is probably more like 30ft vis.
