    LIke any outdoor fountain or water feature it can grow algae. You can use bleach but this is one application that copper is a good choice!

    Thanks for the compliment. When adding bleach to the pool I just add a bit to the fountain. No problem with algae so far. As far as drainage goes in the winter you just pull out the pump and leave it as is....so they say. I was going to buy a pre made Home Depot fountain. I'm sure glad I didn't go that route.
