Algae

The appearance of algae in your pond is a sign of problems to come. Not only is algae is unsightly but can be the cause of death to the aquatic life found in ponds. If you’re a business owner that relies on your ponds for aesthetics or use, excessive algae can put a damper on your business.

Problems Caused by Algae

A pond filled will algae is not a pretty sight. It can cause a damper on business if you rely on your landscape for visitors.

Excessive growth can prevent the mixing of oxygen through the water. Lack of oxygen will eventually lead to the death of aquatic plants and fish.

Algae can also lead to health problems for those who accidently ingest the algae-ridden water. Both humans and non-aquatic animals can be affected by this water.
