My pond is about a week old. I went out to the pond today and it was green. I had a feeling this was coming since it had been starting to green up on the bottom. I have a UV light but have kept it off so the beneficial bacteria could build up in the filter. So how long do I wait before I turn on the UV? It is the pea soup variety not the string.

The good news is the water readings are great otherwise.
