I have mosquitoes in mine, and algea, and leaves, and its just gross. It's too small for plants or fish. It is on the south side so full sun all day, I can't move it because the idea is to have something there my son can see out of his window (he sits in his window a lot, he is disabled). I was thinking by covering it up it wouldn't get stuff falling in it, and wouldn't get the sun on it to grow the algae so much. I don't put any chems in it cause critters drink from it.
