The green scum you are referring to is probably blue-green algae, which is present because of an unhealthy, un-balanced aquatic environment. There are also naturally occuring bacteria in the pond as well, but they cannot compete with the rapid growth of the algae so they are kept in check. However, there are natural solutions that can help restore balance and health to aquatic environments. Our BioHaven Floating Islands have a high surface area matrix that is perfect for bacterial colonization and nutrient uptake, which gives the bacteria an edge in out competing algae. The result? A clean, clear, healthy, balanced aquatic ecosystem with a cool looking floating island in it. www.bluewing-env.com/floating-islands
