We know that you can add most things from the garden but what about pond weed and algae? If you have a garden pond then you know that sometimes you do have to clear it a bit to let light in and remove algae from the pond with a rake. This material should not go to waste it can make great compost.
We recommend when you take this material out you leave it in a pile by the side of the pond for a few hours first, this allows any water loving critters than may be still present to hop back into the pond first. Then simply add it to your compost heap along with your grass cuttings, prunings, tea bags, kitchen peelings, cardboard and shredded paper and it will rot down to form compost.
Ultimately its just decomposed plants and so it will break down to form good compost which contains beneficial bacteria, nutrients, potassium, nitrogen and phosphorus. If anything we think it may be even better for your compost because it will have added nutrients from all that fish waste!
