    Due to algae issues this year I am thinking about adding a few lines with valves from my irrigation system into my lakes. My thought is to use them strategically to make the water circle the ponds. like placing two to three in each pond and allow the central turn them on for a few hours a day.

    Has anyone ever tried this? I have variable speed pumps so it will only run enough to move the water. 
    Can you see any pro's and con's in doing so?
