You should really get a algae eater. Some of the alge killers are harmful to the fish.

it really depends on what type of algae. if its green water algae then use and algicide which you can purchase from aquariums. if it's filament algae then get some snail or algae eating fish. the quickest solution is to scrap the algae off yourself.

Most likely not, It is made up of bicarbonate which the algae can use as a carbon source. So adding baking soda will most likely increase algal growth.
