Frequently asked questions about algae, filamentous and floating algae
Algae or seaweed is an umbrella term for several groups of simple organisms that use sunlight as an energy source, producing oxygen, or O2, through which photosynthesis occurs. Algae are similar to plants in this regard. The difference between an alga and a plant is that alga does not contain roots, stems and leaves.
Although algae are generally considered simple plants, they belong to more than one realm, namely the plant and protista. Algae can be both unicellular and multicellular organisms and take complicated forms such as seaweed, for example.
Thread algae itself is not harmful to your pond, but if there are too many nutrients in a pond, thread algae can grow so fast that they can overgrow almost everything. Therefore, it is advisable to keep filamentous algae in the pond contained.
Thread algae and aquatic plants share the same nutrients. When aquatic plants uses these nutrients, there is less left for the filamentous algae to grow from. Because of this, aquatic plants can help limit the growth of filamentous algae in the pond.
aquatic plants are essential for a healthy pond environment. Oxygen plants, marsh plants and water lilies are especially essential. These plants filter the water and add oxygen. aquatic plants Buy from aquatic plant nursery: van der Velde aquatic plants.

What are algae and how do they form?
Algae are unicellular or multicellular organisms that play a crucial role in aquatic ecosystems, including ponds. They are the primary food source for many aquatic animals and produce oxygen through photosynthesis. However, algae can also cause problems when they are abundant. Excessive algae growth leads to cloudy water, can be toxic and can smother other aquatic organisms. Several factors contribute to excessive algae growth, including excess nutrients (nitrates and phosphates), high pH, too much sunlight and lack of water circulation.
How do I prevent and control algae in the pond?
To prevent and control algae in your pond, a balanced approach is essential. Start with preventative measures such as planting water lilies or other floating plants that provide shade, limiting direct sunlight. Also add oxygen plants, which improve water quality and compete with algae for nutrients. It is also important to regularly remove organic debris and dead plants and change pond water if necessary.
If you do encounter an algae problem, you can address it by manually removing excess algae with a scoop net or pumping out the water completely for a thorough cleaning. After cleaning, you can restore biological balance by adding oxygen plants and special pond bacteria again. By following these steps, you will keep your pond clear and healthy.
Are you suffering from algae in your swimming pond, plant filter or swamp filter?
Our selection of oxygen plants offers the perfect solution. Algae thrive in sunny spots and in nutrient-rich water, such as fish excrement. They compete with aquatic plants for the same nutrients. By placing low-growing oxygen plants in your filter zone, you ensure that these nutrients are absorbed by the plants instead of the algae. Thus, you make the habitat for algae a lot more inhospitable.

Blue-green algae, also called cyanobacteria, are bacteria commonly found in freshwater, such as in ponds. They can be recognized by their blue-green color and usually float in large groups on the surface of the water. However, blue-green algae can produce toxins that can be dangerous to humans and animals. Excessive growth of blue-green algae can occur when there are too many nutrients in the water, such as phosphates and nitrates, and high temperatures and low water circulation. A bloom of blue-green algae can lead to oxygen depletion in the water, fish death and health problems in people and animals who come in contact with the water.
Preventing blue-green algae
To prevent a blue-green algae bloom, it is important to limit the amount of nutrients in the water by planting enough aquatic plants in the pond. It is important to choose aquatic plants with different functions. For example, oxygen plants add oxygen to the pond water, marsh plants filter the pond water with their roots, and water lilies provide shade in the pond with their large leaves, reducing the heating of the water.
