We have a small 2000 gallon pond that has water in it most of the year. I will maybe haul in 2000 gallons over the summer, mainly for the wild life. It's a low spot in clay but we believe it must have some natural water draining into it along with the rain run off from our road. It's around 3' deep at most. Down a little draw about 100 feet I dug another hole in a shaded area that also fills up during the winter with run off. It's around 3 to 4 feet deep and around 2000 gallons also. Last year I got a red algae in the upper pond and didnt know what to do about it. Right now it is covered with a green stringy algae and the water seems to be not evaporating. It's about 20% full. I was going to fill up both ponds and pump water out of the lower one up to the higher one, letting it drain down the draw through the small over populated pine trees and pine needles back down to the lower pond. Would this help to keep the bad algae out of the ponds? Thanks for any advice Rick
