What should you add to the water of a small outdoor fountain to keep it clear?

It depends. If you want to clear your water of suspended particulates, filter the water with activated charcoal . If you want to clear your pond of algae, you have to balance circulation, oxygenation, temperature, exposure to sunlight, plants, fish and other animals, and feed so that the conditions of your pond maintain control of algae production. If any one of the conditions are out of balance, extraordinary means (additional filters, manual removal, etc.) will be necessary to control algae. If the water feature does not need to sustain life, you can use a chlorine puck in the reservoir. This should stop future algae growth. The pucks must be replaced from time to time....

Abobe ground pool water is green?

Green pool water is caused by algae growth. When chlorine levels drop below 1-parts-per-million, algae will begin to grow. To get rid of the algae, turn on the pump so chemicals will circulate through the water. Correct the pH level of the water by adding an acid or a base to bring the pH level to a 7 or 8. Clean any debris out of the pool. With a nylon brush scrub the pool, breaking up the algae. Add shock to the pool, and continue running the pump throughout the cleaning process. The water will be cloudy when the shock is first added, but will soon begin to clear. Once the water is clear, vacuum the algae from the pool.

Is there less algae growth with a blue solar blanket over a clear solar blanket?

The color of the blanket is not rellevant. However, algae multiplies much faster in warm water and gas trapped under a solar cover can be converted into algae food. The cover should be removed during peak heating hours and put back on afterwards. Pool water gets hot without the cover all on its own. The cover is to prevent heat loss more than to multiply heat gain. We see many more pools with algae if covered all the time rather than those where the cover is removed often. Pool & Spa The colour of a blanket can make all the difference... there is a swimming pool cover called EnergyGuard. It has been proven to stop algae growth, as well as saving time, money, water and energy usage. The product is unique with its dark blue top surface and a black underside. This means that the cover absorbs the sun's heat while blocking the sunlight from entering the water, therefore stopping photosynthesis and algae growth. A UK test lasting two months established that a pool with an EnergyGuard cover remained clear of algae without chemical treatment. In a winter test from October 2008 to April 2009, a UK pool was covered with an EnergyGuard cover and a woven mesh debris cover. No winter pool chemicals were used. The water was clear of algae after the 6 month winter period. Hope that is useful Thanks Emma


I have a clear and circular thing in my fish tank.I justgot new two new fish today that eat algae.What is this clear thing in your fish tank?

Maybe it's just a spot where one of your algae eaters has fastened itself and cleared away the algae.


How do you keep pool clear?

You can buy pool chlorinating chemicals that prevent the growth of algae and bacteria. You also skim floating debris off the top, and vacuum debris off the bottom. (Outdoor pools tend to get lots of debris; indoor pools get much less.)


What the clear thick slimy stuff on top of the fishtanks?

that would be algae there are certain types of fish that eat it
