You may be surprised to know it could disappear or die back when water temps warm. Some FA prefers cooler water.

Are you sure it's a problem? I have some in my ponds but don't worry about it unless it's a fry pond and I want to get an algae bloom going. Then the FA competes with the algae bloom.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
