So should I keep algae on the sides of the tub all year long? I get a lot because the pond is on my balcony and gets quite a bit of sun. I thought I was supposed to be scrubbing it all off. So even comets and other fancy goldfish will eat the algae?
Leave the algae growth on the sides of your tub. It is of three-fold benefit...it provides a natural food source for the fish; it will do as much, if not more, in the removal of pollutants as the best biofilter available; and it oxygenates the water.So should I keep algae on the sides of the tub all year long?
