Heybud- Tilapia are the obvious answer, so naturally, I didn't think of them. I guess that's just one more reason to stock them. Anything that will eat both algae and aquatic plants is a winner. We're hoping they can survive next winter this far south, but it'll be close. How close to Poth were you?

SoSauty- I haven't noticed our rosies eating algae, but that's probably because they're too busy swimming for their lives! I'm sure without LMB, FHs in bulk could help control some types of algae, as you indicated. I'm sure in a smaller environment like a fish tank they are better able to keep the algae cleaned up.
