[pondconvert]

Hi all! I'm considering converting my swimming pool into a pond. I have not added chlorine for over a month now, and it is turning green with algae.

I'm thinking about adding a few pleco into the water first to treat the algae, then add some water lilies. I turn the faucet on five minutes in the morning and evening to prevent larvae from building up, and it works. But now I figure I will turn the water on to add oxygen for fish instead.

Will this work? Is the pond good for Koi fish? Thanks in advance for any advice.

I'm not sure if that's a good idea, you will need to first treat the entire pool with a water conditioner. If it works out though, that would be pretty freaking cool. You'd need to post some pics lol!
