Hello, I have a pond full of these jelly-like balls of assumed algae? Has anyone seen these before and how do I get rid of them? I have spend hours with a pool net removing them from the pond but then they just come back again. When I remove them from the water they have an texture similar to sand and an appearance like caviar.....help
Your pond is exhibiting the classic result of accumulated debris on the pond bottom, which is providing a nutrient rich environment for the algae to thrive.
The quick fix solution would be treat with D-Solv Pond Cleaner and Algae Control, then to install a 1/4hp rocking piston aerator system (weighted lines) with two large diffusers. Dose the pond with Muck Off, Muck Away or a similar product every 3-4 weeks.
I've serviced many properties with the same problem. This can be cleared up almost immediately.
