Working now. So I gotta say, that document scared the …. out of me! I now have to sniff for that "pig pen" smell. The picture of the dreaded golden algae. The daphnia from hell!, plugging your fish' gills.

My BOW is only two years old. For FA along the shore, I use a herbicide that simply releases hydrogen peroxide, H2O2, which literally oxidizes the algae. I would expect it to work on bluegreen algae. Really for spot treatments, like shoreline, although I started experimenting with broadcasting to knock down phytoplankton blooms. The stuff floats up with whatever it oxidized then sinks again in a few hours.
