Algae
are
microscopic
organisms
that
thrive
in
water
and
can
prosper
in a
short
amount
of
time
as
their
environment
will
permit.
Above
Ground
Pools
are
acquainted
with
the
pest,
which
form
just
like
any
other
life
form,
where
plenty
of
food
and
sunshine
are
available.
The
key
to
eliminating
algae
or
preventing
it
is
to
control
its
environment
3
basic
types
of
algae:
GREEN-

class
of
algae
can
be
found
floating
in
the
water
or
clinging
to
the
sides
of
your
pool
or
spa.
Dusty
green
in
color,
if
this
plant
prospers
to
the
point
of
no
control
it
can
completely
fog
your
water.
YELLOW-Also
known
as
‘Mustard
Algae’
due
to
its
mustard
color,
this
plant
makes
its
appearance
normally
on
the
shady
sides
of
your
pool
wall.
BLACK-This
class
of
the
organism
varies
from
a
dark

collects
to
form
extremely
