It's got electrolytes

I talked to the plants and they just want water.

That dude in the front is wearing camo overalls. Is he trying to sneak up on the algae? Is he an assassin?

Dude behind him is wearing dayglow. They are giving mixed signals.

Bahahaha you’re cute.

Hydrogen peroxide very rapidly decomposed to just water

We certainly know that the pool paint isn't rated for those chemicals.

It's what plants crave!

I had idiocracy on my list for a while. After watching it, I can confirm that it's easily one of the best movies ever made.

Idiocracy is more like real Life tv now versus a movie.

When that came out, it was a way over the top silly movie.
Watching that now may prove to be a very different experience.

You should try it, it has electrolytes.

If you shock it, that kills the algae, right?

Then where does it go? There's physical remnants left behind. That doesn't just disappear.

Just like you have to skim a regular pool, I'm sure you want to keep solid waste out of the reflecting pool to keep from overwhelming a filtration system that's simply not built for the load.

I assumed it was a generated image.

At the very least, the water is too green.

If it happens to be legit, no they're not scooping algae because they don't have anything to scoop it into.

That said, during algal blooms in estuaries et cetera physically removing it is part of the process. If a healthy estuary is free of whatever variety of algae, but it gets infested somehow for example due to fertiliser run off from farms, then stopping the fertiliser may not be enough to solve the problem because the estuary is clogged up with algae.

You're living it mate.

Never saw idiocracy.

You don't need to anymore.
