This is my first post I have been ponding for around 15 years
this is my first year that I have had this problem string algae I live in southern Ontario Canada zone six pond is approx 12 x 15 x 3 ft. deep not sure on the gallons I run 4 aquascape pumps each 2000 gal so I can have full water coverage over my water fall. have aquascape pressure filter as well as 24 watt uv have done water changes pulled, tugged,
not willing to add chemcial I have around 25 shubunkins most are around 6 "
have not feed so far this year pond is 60% covered with plant material I have been thinking that this is due to the amount of rain that we have had this spring. One thing that has seemed to work a little is adding beer I just added six cans yesterday and algae is floating
on top just finshed scooping all the algae out and did another water change appox 10%
