Ok that rings a bell, seems like I saw someone who had a similar problem year ago, and I noticed their pond was blue at some point. Thanks a lot for the info.

168, that's a great idea for marking what's sprayed and what's not!

Its also handy to use in a weed sprayer, i mix a small amount with weedkiller and it marks where you spray with a blue color. Makes it easy to see what you have sprayed and what you have missed.

Its normal.Get some Blue Bayou at tractor supply and add some to the water, It colors the water a blue color and prevents sunlight from going deep enough to let the algae grow. It is not poison so it will not hurt the fish. Its a dye that will clear up unwanted growth. But dont use the treated water to water your garden. its sort of pricy but depending on the size of your pond a gallon should provide several treatments, I usually treat ours in the spring and again in mid summer. Also use rubber gloves or your hands will look like a smurfs.

I have a thin green layer of some sort of vegitation growing on the surface of the pond on my property. I would like to know what it is, and how difficult it would be to remove it. I'm sure its a common problem and someone reading this has or knows someone who has dealt with it. Thanks for any info.
