This is my first year with a fully functional pond, and I have a question about algae build up. From reading here, I know you want a healthy algae build up on the surfaces of your pond, but I wanted to see if what I'm experiencing now is normal. Over the past month or so, my algae has started to grow much longer and thicker than it had through all of the warm summer months, which baffles me. It's gotten thick enough that I've had to change the the batting fiber in my DIY filter twice over the past weeks, just to maintain the water flow.
My question is if this is completely normal, or if I should be concerned. All other aspects of the pond, and more importantly my fish, seem to be completely healthy.
Thanks,
Feddy
