Problems with Algea

[denny]

I want to thank everyone for the good advice & i will definitely put it to good use. Does anyone have a easy way to catch goldfish ?

I would say to drain the pond as much as you can as you do your water change which would make catching them easier.
While you're at it, be sure to scoop out as much grunge from the bottom of the pond as you can.
Be mindful when refilling the pond that there isn't too much of a temperature difference between the existing pond water and the new incoming water. If there is a big difference, fill slowly. Be sure to treat the new water with dechlorinator if you are on a city water supply.

Floating algae and i only feed what they can eat in about ten minutes. Never did water test. I posted a picture. thanks

Deny cut that down to what they can eat in 5 minutes , you could try "Clover leaf" on your pond , it will turn your pond white for a few days but should clear up the pond to crystal clear condition, get rid of half your fish load at least and learn to sex your fish that way yuou can add or remove males too or from the pond thus reducing the numbers of goldfish born each year

@Dave 54 , I'm interested in the sexting information. I've been wondering if a pond of all males is easier and safer? If you had females, with no males, do they become egg bound?
