ugly but harmless to the fish. dont feed the fish until you get a new filter up and
running. get some real aeration in there. they can do without the filter but not
the aeration. and if you got a UV, turn that off the algae will suck up nutrients.
if water is warmer than 75 or so that is going to create oxygen debt, so need that
aeration. Ingrid

So how serious is all this goop in the pond with no filtration? If I make
the Skippy filter that will take a day or two and I don't know if I have
that much time. I did put a 500gph pump on a shelf with a hose out of the
water to add aeration.
