That way you don't have to introduce toxic chemicals into the water to kill the algae caused by man-made retention ponds filling up with runoff rainwater.

Introducing algae eating fish is akin to feeding the alligators and they would thank you for that. Just call and let them know there is excessive algae and they will take care of it. Problem solved.
