What is the brand name and wattage of light ? Have you changed the
light in the last month or so ? Cleaned the sleeve ?
Haven't bought a bulb, but we did clean the sleeve. The bulb doesn't have
to burn out to lose effectiveness? Like another poster said, though, this
is not the algea that it is designed to kill.



As far as Koi and plants, it is a tough battle. Using a feeding ring
goes along way though.

Another battle rendered moot by the
incompatibility of koi and lilies/other plants.
(I really do like the koi, I don't mean to blame everything on them. I
just
never realized how much the terms "koi pond" and "water garden" were
mutually exclusive. The answer of course, is a new, lily and plant
pond.)

Ann, what size pond do you have?

What kind of algae ? Get a 25 watt UV for suspended green water. It
will be a much better investment then dye.
