We have a silt pond by our house, and it's turning red and slightly yellow on top. I was wondering why this happens? Could it be red algae? I heard a few species live in fresh water. Or is it iron something or other? Also, when water comes out from my shower, it's red at first. I read this can be due to mildew, but does it have anything to do with the silt pond turning red? It just did like 3 days ago. We just had some storms. Could that change anything? Thanks. :)
