I have been reading this thread on muck digesting pellets and something struck me but I don’t know if what I am thinking is accurate. I am quite sure that someone on this site will know. It seems that stirring up the bottom of a pond creates a more fertile environment for plants like algae to bloom creating more organic matter that makes muck. My question is this. If there was a way to remove the living organic matter, prior to it dying , would this help reduce the over fertile situation of the water since the plant life would be using the newly introduced nutrients, from the water to flourish?
