❓ Here is the answer to yesterday’s question, should you run an aeration system if your pond can freeze over?

‼️ The answer is yes!

💦 But do not keep air-stones at the bottom of your pond

6️⃣ Raise them up to about 6 inches below the water

🔥 Water at that level will be warmer than the water’s surface which will aid in keeping your pond from freezing over

🤔 Here is the answer to yesterday’s question

❓ True or false? UV lights kill string alage

‼️ The asnwer is false!

☀️ UV lights work very well at killing pea soup green water, also know as single cell planktonic algae

☠️ The UV light works by having water pass through it at a slow enough speed to kill the algae and clump it together making it easier for your filter to remove it

🌱 String algae or filamentous algae cannot be killed with UV lights
