Default Duckweed

well.... if the fish wont eat it then try a protein skimmer. gradually it will float
along and get sucked into the skimmer where it can be removed. Ingrid

Help ! First timer on this group, with a problem - Duckweed. I have never
knowingly introduced it to my pond, but now it is taking over, and the three
fish are no longer seen (Ghost Carp and goldfish). What ferocious fish can I
introduce to devour the duckweed ? (But not the other fish.

Many Thanks

Mike
