I have a 600 gallon pond and I am starting to get Alge on the sides. I know it is inevitable to avoid it but is there anyway to combat it without use of chemicals due to fact a have a small Lobster in there. Thanks
 
Your pond is out of balance. Excess nutrients in the water with lots of sunlight allow the hair algae to thrive. I would add some plants and hit it with some beneficial bacteria. Plants like water lilies can help your water and add shade.:cool:

I have a lot of plants in there now water lettuce, a lot of anacharis. But that pump and filter is making a huge difference!!!!
