anyone have any recommendation for outdoor pond plants, and where to get them? My RO runoff is currently a 300g rubbermaid "bucket", that I occasionally use to water various parts of my yard. I noticed wigglers (mosquito larva) so I tossed in some cheap goldfish, then I noticed the local raccoon(s) (or skunks.. probable coons) enjoyed the free buffet I was offering, so I put a net covering on the tank, reintroduced more fish, they seem to be safe .. however I can't see the bottom any more because the its completely green (algae)... so I figured some floating plants would be a nice addition, maybe even give a tad of color as well rather than a dark gray bucket with pea soup in it.
Now I know the algae isn't harmful to my plants I water, but still its the principle of the situation.
I've checked the local big box home improvement stores as I've seen them there in past years, but I guess the season is already gone for those.. so any other ideas? I've seen duck weed in puddles up near Muir Woods, and I know how much Gresham loves that stuff
