nogoer....I see. I wonder if it is "illegal to ship" or "illegal to ship or use". Well not sure how you feel about it, but sometimes e-Bay sellers will ship to any state....otherwise i guess you'll have to find approved products to satisfy the local bureaucrats.
Didnt think about ebay. Ive tried looking around for local bans but havent had any luck yet. The rpevious owner left a 5gal pail of liquid cutrine i did use the last few gallons of so i know it was legal at one point.
Go to your local big box store (THD, LOWES) and get as much floating rope (YELLOW POLLY) as you need to cross the pond. Get a big bag of wire ties and the smallest diameter pool noodle you can find. Cut the pool noodle into a bunch of small sections (APPROXIMATELY 2"). Space the cut sections out on the rope about every 3 feet and zip tie into place. Add more ties every couple of inches on the rope between each float, clipping the tag end to about an inch long.These will act as catches on the algae and help keep it from slipping under the rope as you drag it across.
Edit: since you're in CT, Tilapia are probably allowed, but you'll have to restock every year. They wont survive your winters.
I had thought of something similar to this but dismissed it thinking it would just float over the mats. The zip ties i can see helping, but dont they just spin? Even the ones on the rope itself?
