We have a small pond (about 100 gallons of water) with a small circulating pump, but would like to put in some kind of water plants, such as water lilies. In the past, algae has been a problem, and we are presently using chlorine tablets to keep the algae from growing. However, I understand that chlorine will kill the water plants.
