YUP have been doing that...luckily have a "huge" roll (4'x?lots) especially
since it needs to be changed around every 2 days(6 squares 12"x15"). Hmm
think I prefer brown to green to if the clarity improves. May have to work
on the SO's sense of adventure.

try adding a layer or 2 of quilt batting to the final stage of your
filter
before the water returns to the pond. it will catch an awful lot of
greenies.
you may need to replace it once as it will get clogged quickly.

Taking out the plants is a pain
LOL
Reckon brown water will do for this year...will add batting next
spring and start fresh.
