If I Was Still On Hive

They said it was to kill an 'invasive species' of fish. In my experience any attempts to 'balance' nature by manmade methods is always catastrophic. If it was chlorine that would kill a lot more than just one species of fish. If I was the guy with the poison I'd have taken a sample for testing before handing it back to the policeman.

Yes. People use tap water in their fish aquariums and it is filled with chlorine (and worse) . They sell Chemicals to balance the chlorine level.

They need to find a way to reduce the toxic algae blooms that are killing fish all over the planet.

Blue-green algal blooms can be caused by agricultural and stormwater runoff as well as leaching from septic systems. In Ontario, phosphorus tends to be the nutrient that influences the growth of algae.

I'm not so sure these algae do kill fish A bit like saying the disease is what kills us when the disease is the body trying to restore balance and rid of toxins. As above so below. What they do is akin to dosing us with antibiotics to kill the things that are doing the clean up job. Man fighting nature is ridiculous. The cause of the bloom is as you said pollution caused by man.

Yes … I agree 109% …. We need to stop putting chemicals into the air and water.

The most effective method to reduce blooms is through broad community effort to reduce nutrient loading into lakes. This is most often achieved through reducing the input of phosphorus, as well as nitrogen in a more limited extent. Though cyanobacteria are found in some of the oldest fossils and are natural to aquatic habitats, harmful algal blooms are increasing in frequency in the United States and across the world and are becoming more of a problem as eutrophication increases.
