Well there isn't any power out there, so mechanical aeriation is not an option.
I will say this, what is not seen is the wide open 55 acres behind me. You can see wind ripple on the surface in the first picture.
Also, it was just dug a few months ago, and filled up with the last couple of rains. When we drained it there was green/black water in it. I think it needs a little time to settle and appear more condusive. The water in the picture is pure run off coming across that fresh dirt.
At least that's my current justification...
I feel you though, as someone who dabbles in aquaculture and fish tanks, water quality is a huge factor.

Airator is bullshite. It will help them grow faster cause it feeds their food source. You don't need that to just have a few crawfish boils. They can live in extremely low D.O. Environments.
Spend that money on Budweiser.

I have a friend who recently bought property and dug about a 3 acre pond on it. It is in the wide open fields so wind blows all the time. He installed a windmill that attaches to an aerator in the pond. End result: never need to run water well for aeration. Just some food for thought since you have wide open space around this pond.
