Hi Everyone, I posted here in I think April 2019 asking for advise re fish pond with thread algae, I would like to thank you all for your very prompt replies. Unfortunately due to an accident my husband was stuck in a chair for nearly 8 months and the fish pond was left to its own devises, thread algea thrived. I kept taking huge clumps of it out throughout the year & as you know it just kept re-appearing. The frogs loved it and the one water snake. To cut a long story short after browsing the Internet we discovered that the use of a small amount of fresh wood ash would eliminate the algea. The other day my husband scattered a small amount of wood ash over the pool. Low & behold the algea has practically gone, it's a miracle.
Just thought I would post this piece of info on here for those of you struggling with this dammed pest.
Thank you again for all your kind advice, sorry it s a little late in coming.
