I sometimes take some water from the climbing perch pond outside to add to the aquariums inside.
This amount of water doesn't green my aquarium. But it does contain microorganisms that the fry love.
This "disaster zone" aquarium is intentionally like that. I use the bladder snails as food for the perch, the excess algae for the compost, and the tank as hospital/quarantine for sick looking fish. The guppies in there are thriving so I occasionally take out some to ass to the perch pond as food. But now the perch pond itself has a thriving guppy population, enough to sustain even with some being eaten by the perch.
