avoid have just bought some extract of barley straw by interpet to add
but hope it works as quite costly. 1 bottlecosts =A314.99 & will only

What are barley flakes? Just chopped up barley straw? Instead of tossing in
barley flakes, try put them in a bag of some kind? Make one out of a woman's
pantyhose, so it doesn't float around and look like dinner. to the fish.

Add more plants, once the plants get going, surface and suspended algae seem
to die back on their own.

Clean the bottom of your pond, remove excess muck.

I have installed a electronic device to my pond and so far so good pond is
crystal clear with no blanket weed and no string algae
