I can see where, in some cases, dye might make sense. That is in case of a serious plant infestation in a fed or production pond.

That said, I would rather nuke green stuff but some would disagree and I certainly understand that. Al Hall has found that killing one type of plant can result in getting a different one that you might like even less.

Against all common sense, governments actually discourage/regulate the use of natural tools like grass carp and/or tilapia. I have to fence in grass carp and am only allowed to use one type of tilapia.

It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

Boy, if I say "sic em", you'd better look for something to bite. Sam Shelley Rancher and Farmer Muleshoe Texas 1892-1985 RIP Grandpa
