Just started seeing this in my pond late last year following the low water conditions and the drought.

I forget the name but I have sprayed and killed mine with an aquatic approved spray. A systemic spray, along the lines of roundup but aquatic approved. I bought it at a local feed store.

I dont think it's that. These leaves are very small.

I think it's a relative tho. Maybe it's Potamogeton diversifolius.
