Hi Lou!

Glad to *see* you here on rec.ponds.
Some folks had good luck here last year by sprinkling
plain, unscented, generic kitty litter on blanket weed,
which we call string algae.
If you decide to try it let us know how it works.

Other than that the same rules apply to it as regular algae,
starve it of nutrients - fish waste, muck and mulm of rotting
organics, sunlight and employing all manner of plants to
compete for the available nutrients.

kathy :-)
