rockminer your pond is spectacular! I commend you for finding a great solution. I would love to add a bog garden to my set up but am not ready to spend the many thousands it would take (just yet)
I too have fought pea soup water and fish infected with flukes etc many times. But in the past season I have found the solution to my problems.
I started the UV lights earlier this year, early March and have been diligent in inoculating the pond with beneficial bacteria. I also stopped flushing my filter regularly. I have done it only about 3 times in the past year.
Things were going well then improved with a new product, photo below.

ps. the pictures are tipped 45 degrees. I asked DG about it and they said it seems to be the iPhones. ?? No comment on maybe fixing the problem. :-
