Default Algae bloom from hell...

Any chance of
having the pump just circulate the water...as in make it circulate to
the surface where it can exchange gases? We have a bypass that allows
the pump to skip the berm ponds but continue to circulate water. It
actually runs in from a 1.5" pipe set just above water level. Talk
about a jet!


Did that already, and overnight the surface algae either died off,or sank
below the surface. The water's going though the uv filter, and then just
duping back into the pond for now.

Still trying to find a local source for a 50 gallon covered storage device I
can use for a new filter to replace that sterlite.
