Small pond. 100 by 40 feet. The vegetation emerges to the surface every summer and goes back to the bottom in fall. Small pink flowers when blooming in the middle of the summer. Takes almost all surfaces unless removed or in areas of aeration. The water seems clear. Blue gill and bass seem ok.
Pictures in the next post.

Hello.

It looks like the Utricularia, carnivorous plant.

Is this a good thing? or I need to remove as much as I can? It appears that this is good from a quick google search.

Hello.

You seem to have a lot of them, this is not very good for the fish larvae and fry, since these carnivorous plants are large consumers of Zooplankton.
