stock tanks

Help Support CattleToday:

I throw in the swimming pool chlorine tablets- one (small one) per 150 gallon stock tank. It dissolves slowly so it keeps working for several weeks. Its not stong enough to eliminate all the green (except for right next to it) but it keeps it down enough that I don't have to scrub and clean weekly any more. Clorox is just a short term clean up- it evaporates into the air unlike the pool chlorine.
 
Get some Triploid Grass Carp. I'm hoping they will clean up my tank. Here's a photograph of what I'm dealing with right now. Been fightin' it for two years now.

Well, so much for the photo. Can't seem to get it to attach.

I have had pretty good results using goldfish.

We've done that, too. I've wondered about putting a Plecky(sorry, can't pronounce or spell the full name) or two in the bigger tanks, but I'm thinking they won't survive our winters. They might work for you, though.
Would those be plecostomus?

Could very well be.
