We finally got our algae problem under control when the trees around us started dropping seeds into the water. The Maple spinners are bothersome but manageable, but the stringy seeds things that look like a string with balls on it (from the oaks, maybe) have messed up the water big time! We can see the particles in the water, but the filter does little to filter the water.

Any suggestions as to how to make the water clear again? Is there a system that would be better for micro-particles?

Diane
