Quick question

Post Body

The first bog filter I made was built backwards so today I made another one that is bottom flowing. Their are cobble stones, just a few lava rock, filter floss, and pea gravel in the bog. The bottom layer has larger cobble stones around a milk crate to keep the solids there along with a drain valve.

This pond is only about 2-3 weeks old and over the pass 3 days the water turned green. Is there anything I should do to reduce the green algae? The tank has about 210 gallons water and their are not many fish in it (maybe 15 small ones).
