Pondless Waterfall Care

Recently, a couple new pondless owners have asked, "What should I do about the green stringy stuff?"
The string algae seems to thrive best in cold conditions. Seasonally, you begin to notice changes in the ecosytem. Unlike a swimming pool which is filled with chemicals and sterile, a pondless waterfall is a natural system that is friendly to plants, insects and birds.

If the algae becomes unsightly several things can be done for asthetics. First, and simplest option is to turn the feature off for 24-48 hrs. This will starve the algae and take it out of its growing enviroment.
Secondly, you can treat the water with Pondless Waterfall Algaeblast. This algaeside will kill the algae in the system. This will need to be added on a regular basis for added control.

Fighting against nature is always a poor choice. But, having a pondless waterfall feature can bring untold enjoyment for many years to come.
