That's a cool-looking pond I'd like to have one of those near my house. Maybe not at night when the mosquito come out, but during the day it would be fun to paddle in. Well, once the algae is gone. ;)
It looks like you need to get garden rakes to get that stuff out. They're strong, so you could pull a lot in with one movement. Once it's close to shore, you could use a pitchfork to pull out a pile of it. It's going to look great once you're done! Are there fish in it?
Yeah once the algae is gone it’ll be nice to paddle around! There currently aren’t fish in there from what we can tell. They plan on stocking it once t gets cleaned up.
The rakes did work pretty well, but it was tough to get the algae off the rake with the one they had!
That will be cool to have some fish in there. Who knows, maybe there's a variety that eats algae and can help you keep the levels down. :)
Ha ha, yeah, rakes can hold onto stuff that you wish they'd let go of. It's how things go sometimes.
