Retention ponds and lakes are beginning to bloom with algae in Upstate Greenville SC this week.  Most ponds have awakened from their long refrigerated winter only to being to grow unsightly algae mats.

These mats often float on the pond surface and move with the wind from one side of the pond to the other.  Algae mats can also be found in shallow areas along shorelines.

How does an HOA or property owner manage these algae blooms?  Does installing a fountain solve your algae problems?

Pond and lakes are happiest when balanced.  Often when lakes and pond awaken the can be moody for a time until it is brought back into balance.

Fountains although beautiful do little for the overall health of a pond.  What is needed is a water column that is thriving free of noxious weeds.

What makes a water column thrive?

Oxygen, bacteria & enzymes burning off excess nutrients left over in the pond or lake is the secret ingredient to make the lake thrive.

This is why bottom aeration is the essential backbone of any pond or lake.  Without aeration, the pond or lake is essentially moving in slow motion.

By removing the thermocline, managing the pond for noxious weeds & supplementing bacteria, & enzymes the body of water will quickly become balanced.

Think of it as a weight loss program for your pond or lake.  The only way to lose the algae it to burn off the pond or lake excess calories or nutrients.
