clumbing, that's a new one on me ;-)

Didn't we decide that this rise from the bottom type of algae is blue-green
algae?

-- i believe so and a couple years ago Rod posted on killing it (google
for Rod Farlee and blue green algae
the only trouble is what kills it kills all algae in the pond( and
tender plants) which can be more of a mess than just netting it out ( we
acidently did this this year and the pond went from nice clear green to
dark brown stayed dark brown for near two weeks till the algae started
growing again
