Aerators and emergent plants such as cattail will help consume nutrients and act as a nutrient sink by binding them in leaf tissue while not taking up aquatic oxygen by breathing through their leaves above water

My first thought was aquatic plants. However, does that effectively remove the nitrogen or does it stay in the system when the plant dies?

@@micah_lee i depends on the species of plant and the parts that go into decomposition, but overtime everything is eaten out by the bacterias,fungis etc.. and realesed back in the water, but if plants are pruned and organic wastes removed regulary it will work out and with all that excess biomass compost can be made recycling back the nutrients.

People just glance at the RPs and think they are good and all is well. But looking at a murky, algae_plagued pond I think “not so good”.

But, isn't the algae pumping out Oxygen hardcore??? Skim off the algae on a regular basis and dry it into natural plant food powder. We also MUST keep these ponds well stocked with native amphibians-they will gobble that stuff up!
