Algae use much of the oxygen in water.
Pond scum consists of algae. Algae is an autotroph, meaning they do not need to eat. Instead, they produce food internally from carbon dioxide, water, and sunlight using photosynthesis.Pond scum is a algae, a plant. It needs sunlight. If you want to not have pond scum, you need to aerate the water. Avoid plant fertilizers as they will just make the pond scum grow faster.

Algae in a goldfish pond is quite common with an increase in sun (light) and temperature. To try and keep algae to a minimum you will want to look at ways to provide the pond with shade, and regularly change out some of the water for fresh water during the warmer months.

if you have a small pond like mine (mine is 300 gallons) you can filter the water through a uv light which kills bacteria and free-floating algae i have a 20 watt uv light integrated into a bio filter which cost about a hundred dollars total. it has been a lifesaver!
Yes, it is because without any algae some living animals in the pond would die. Algae can be food for some creatures in the pond. If your pond is just for admiring and not for living creatures, no, it isn't because the algae will take over the pond and no living creature is in it to eat the algae.
