Do you have algae in your pond? Here are a few tips to help.
Try to maintain proper balance between fish and plants
• 1 oxygenator plant (ie: anacharis) for ever 2 sq ft of surface area
• 1 floater plant (ie: water hyacinth) for every 10 sq ft of surface area
• Marginal plants (ie: cattail) surround 1/3 circumference of pond covered
Algae grows from the nitrogen in the water. The plants help take the nitrogen from the water to help decrease algae growth.
