    Miscellaneous Algae

    ______________________________________

    The typical spring-time swamp found when opening improperly closed pools. Cleaning this up, without draining, requires MASSIVE amounts of chlorine.



    ______________________________________

    The bacterial / fungal slime sometimes called "water mold".



    ______________________________________

    Examples of algae dust, remaining after algae is killed. Mustard algae often grows IN the dust piles.
