Green Tide
This green tide has been developing for a few days. It's supposed to be harmless, but it sure looks nasty

Re: Green Tide
Ick. Didn't you just have a red tide? Must feel almost like Christmas by now! Gotta wonder what's causing all this.

Re: Green Tide
It may be harmless to humans but wreaks havoc with our abalone...

This season was much worse than normal. Just before the green tide started, and as the red tide was fading, it began to smell like a sewer. The smell was up to a mile inland it was so bad. Never seen (smelled) that before. We had to sleep with our windows closed it was so bad. Close to the beach it made my eyes burn. That's partly why we went up to La Paz for the week. It was nasty. At least the green tide doesn't stink. |

Re: Green Tide
Yuk!! If that persists, you might wanna double check the actual routing of your black water septic pipes! You surf in that water?
On the other hand, there are people making big bucks off that red tide/green tide algae stuff: http://fineartamerica.com/featured/r...umphauzer.html |
