Default AlgaeFix anyone??

So you would recommend the UV light??? I have pea soup and have never had a
problem with string algae. I get full sun from morning to night and am in
South Texas were it is hot!!! I usually get pea soup before all the plants
fill back in.

I've just started using it myself after a string algae outbreak.
I've been told to not let the string algae get out of hand, and
I see it sure can (this is a Koi pond, BTW). The weather is not yet
supporting floating plants that would compete with it, otherwise
I'd rather not use it. I have a UV which does take care of the
pea soup algae. I wish there was a fix for the string algae that
didn't bother the algae that grows on the pond walls & floor.
The AlgaeFix doesn't seem to bother my water lilies or any
other plants, as advertised.

I was wondering if anyone on the newsgroup has tried AlgaeFix. It is
supposed to kill the floating algae without harming the plants or fish.

I
have done two doses per the instructions in the last week and my water

seems
to be clearing up, I can see down about 5" now where I couldnt before.
