Best Answer

Water + light + nitrogen + oxygen will always produce algae/water plants. That is natures way of keeping water clean. The easiest of the above to control is the light. If you reduce the light getting to the water surface by shading a section that will help. Placing aquatic plants like water lillies in there to cover some surface area can also help.
