Don’t panic if you spot algae in your pond. It’s a normal and vital part of the ecosystem, indicating its health. Algae are beneficial in the right proportion and provide food for your fish. Excessive growth occurs due to sunlight and nutrient-rich water.
To manage this, use proper filtration and incorporate aquatic plants that compete with algae for nutrients. Remember, the goal is maintaining a balanced, clear, and healthy pond, not eradicating algae completely.
