Also the water is very clear so I havent noticed any turbidity caused by the GC

platon20, are you sure it was coontail, and not another plaint like Southern Naiad or Chara? I've never heard of GC clearing up coontail that fast. I'm not questioning what happened, just curious more than anything else.
