In an earlier post Theo Gallus stated that Golden Shiners have been reported to help control Filamentous Algae. It is illegal to stock tilapia in Louisiana ponds, so golden shiners where recommended as a less effective alternative. I just wanted to know if anyone on the forum has had first hand experience with using shiners as an effective control before I purchase some. The weather is still pretty cool here and the FA is already getting thick.
Any help or recommendations will be greatly appreciated.
