:Can any one help!My pond that I built holds 3000 gal water so it is medium size,but I bought MICROBE-LIFT and added it to my pond like it says but I still have a problem with algae and I am getting tired of seeing it--I need to know what to use that is safe for fish and aquatic plants?
IMO no chemical other than water conditioner and the occassional medication is safe to add. The best way to fight algae is to prevent overfeeding, clean on a regular basis, and scrape the algae off with your hands.
