I am wanting to know if I could use micro lift Algaway together with Microlift PL? I need to get rid of string algae, which started after I cleaned the pond and put new fish in it and get the water clear again like I used to have it. I have a filtration with the UV light a pump that pumps water through my fall and I believe my pond is only about 600 gallons to 1000 I believe.

When you do all this cleaning and adding new water and scrubbing it all down it is like starting all over and now you will have to be patient, add plenty of plants, keep the feeding down (I only feed once a week on Fish Day Friday. Believe it or not goldfish can live w/o us feeding them forever. Koi not so much! Don't add all these chems. Don't ever do all this start over cleaning stuff,it does not help. Carpet short algae is good on the sides of the pond liner etc. The long string algae you can remove w/ways someone else will tell you about as I don't have it and never had. Fish like to nibble on it and if you don't give them tons of food each day they will eat more of it. Too many nutrients (fish poop,food etc.) in the water will make string algae.
