Default UV finally

Our green is still in full swing. The filte5r hasn't done its thing
as yet. Generally has atken about a week to do it.

Jim thinks mabye the algae don't reproduce with the UV in place, but
don't die out either. He isn't sure. Maybe others will know the
answert to that.

The end result of the UV working is generally tea clear water rather
than gin clear. Actually, it is even less clear than that as some of
the particles do go through the veggie filters and the koi stir the
pond (24") steadily.

May yours clear to gin color.
