Hello All,
I have a 4 months old stream and pond without any filter system. I am in S. California where we still receives full sun until yesterday. My water is green pea soup. I have total 10 feeder and mosquito fishes. I am planning to make a mechanical filter which consists brushes only. I am not planning to make a bio filter as I have already lots of gravel, rocks, sand in the stream. I have only a few plants (water hyacinth and some kind of grass) and they are not helping to balance the system. I am trying to get rid of the algae, am I doing the right thing here?
