So I have a couple types of stuff growing in my pond. I think the underwater stuff is Southern Naiada. I'm not sure what the shoreline and shallow water stuff is. My question is this stuff good to have? Or bad to have? Or is there a middle position where one should have some of this stuff in the pond? Should I try to remove it, by pulling it out of the water? Or should I use chemicals? My pond level has dropped a good 14 inches with the summer well pumping in my area. So I can wade out and pull some of this stuff out while leaving some behind if it is desired. My pond isn't very deep and I don't know what a happy medium is.

I'll work on attaching photos next.
