If you google ph ranges for fish you will find there is a very narrow window before they become affected.
Mods, why hasn't Tyler been banned? Almost every post he makes seems to be directed at someone in a negative way. AO would be far better off without him.
Activated charcoal is used as filters, regular charcoal can filter out particles and some toxin but also effects the ph level as it breaks down. Once it breaks down it just releases those toxins back into the surrounding area anyways.

The amount of ash required to do what you're proposing would be astronomical. There is a reason forest fires don't kill off entire lakes. As far as releasing toxins back in by the time that happens they will be buried in sediment. As far as me being banned lol for what. For disagreeing with people?
Have fun.
Call the co next time you see me on the ice its always nice to see them out. Kids usually get stickers and we always offer them a hot dog.
