Solar Aerators

I searched previous threads last week about algae-covered ponds, and found a lot of info, and also found solar aerators that were reasonably priced. I didn't bookmark the site, and now I can't find it anywhere! Has anyone used these? Are they effective?

We have a pond on the property we're buying - the algae is growing fast, and we saw about a dozen small dead fish, so the oxygen level is probably low. Our well tested high in nitrates, so I know the spring feeding it is high, and it's just adding to the algae growth. I'm going to transplant some watercress to line the inflow, so hopefully that will help, but we thought we should try to aerate it also.
