Mike, the slight tint of (algae) green is the most ideal condition for water and gosanke. The water clarity is clear enough for viewing but the algae are there in number to benefit the koi's skin quality and the beni. I have seen a ZNA judge's pond with the above water conditions, and the sheen and luster are out of this world. And the beni is so red that it hurt my eyes. Some days I would acquire a similar skill to keep water like that .... for now, my pond need more seasons to reach maturity. Donald
