Default Foam in pond

I get that every spring when I first start up my waterfall and filter, some
years worse than others, and have read here it is protein - not sure about
that, but it is gone fairly quickly
Gale :~)

===============================
Mine is as well. I can't remember it lasting for more than a day when it
appears. Once the spawning stops the foam and froth gradually disappear.
It's not always caused by excessive organic matter on the pond bottom or
rotting leaves and debris among the plants as I found out through my own
experience.
