Just starting using this last year (2016). We purchased a cabin in 2015 that had a poor shoreline. Shoreline had not been used in over 10 years. Shallow waters had thick muck from layers of decaying leaves. We purchased 10 lbs and split it up in 1 lb bags and applied every 2 weeks. By end of season we could see sand in a areas. We realize it will take several applications. This is a lesson to all to keep up with your shoreline - it will save you money in the long run.

I have a 35,000 gallon Koi pond, impossible to drain and clean. Been using MuckMaid for the past five years to keep the nasty stuff off the bottom. Works great!

Not too good. After three applications, the muck was still there maybe an inch gone for the season.

I purchased the 1 lb trial for my 15 x 22 ft pond. Even though the advertisement says "MuckMaid® is an effective pond and lake muck removal solution that will make your water crystal clear with a nice sandy bottom." this does not prove true. After the 1 lb is finished applied as the company suggested my pond is still black with muck and smells terrible. This item is misrepresented and should be researched further before put in the market.

I have used several top Muck removal products for 10 years. Muck products are always expensive for some reason - my only complaint. Prices are really the same for pond sizes with different competing products. However, MuckMaid used starting just last season, has made it possible to see sand at the bottom of the pond in lots of areas! It does take more product to cover more area - would like to spend $85 but doesn't cover what it says it will. $150 is a lot considering we also get 3 or 4 other products. Only reason I gave it 4 star and not 5 (price too high for volume). BUT - the results absolutely, 100% work! I can't tell you how hard I've worked on our 1/4 acre natural pond for years. With 3 foot long Koi and albino catfish up to 42" - it's a joy to see them swim under the surface, instead of just seeing their mouth at feeding time (used to be so dark / murky). If they'd charge $85 for the $149 volume size, that would be fair and helpful.

I got my second order of the Muck Maid today. Super service. I will keep adding to our lake area once a month. I can see a improvement with the muck. It may take several years as the muck is several feet deep in some areas. We had a saw mill on our lake in the late 1800. 1888 - 1903. A lot of weed growth and many oak a maple leaves are the bottom. I can however now see sand out 3 to 4 foot depths. The Muck Maid is working. This is the only product that is getting rid of the Muck. Thanks Dale

Don't know if this will make the website or not but there is no way this small bucket covers 20,000 square feet. I have approx. 8,000 ft total and I barely did the shore lines. Who cares if it works at this price $149.00) I see others sell the same thing at Amazon for 25# I will probably do that next time.

This product is amazing! My kids wouldn't swim at our family cabin because the beach area had so much muck. After using this product, we got rid of 6+ inches of gunk and my kiddos love playing in the water again.
