Trading Nutrients for Fish by Bruce Kania (courtesy of Pond Boss magazine www.pondboss.com)
Fish productivity is enhanced by surface area. When biofilms accumulate on substrate, excess nutrients in the water are used up as the biofilm grows. This in turn feeds the food chain, and leads to bigger and more numerous fish. Catching these fish represents a great way to remove phosphorus permanently from water.
