Algae Infestation (I want my Krabby Patty Secret Formula!!!!!) [ Got a clue what type of algae the pond is infested in]

That's right.The algae is planktonic algae and is described by my reference as 'Green Pea Soup'.*lol* The reference also provided some answers. *background* "The Krabby Patty Formula! Its finally mine after 20 long years......"No! That's the same one you grabbed when ya called all your country bumpkin relatives and.....arrgh never mind.* KER-FLICK!*
Right...the solutions.

1. The pond might have too small a pump/filter.
Remark: I'm not sure if this solution is possible as I had never seen the blueprints for the pond.

2.The pond is under full sunlight.
Remark: Obviously this is one of the reasons for the algae growth as the pond is under full sun at all times.

3.The pond is very shallow around the edges or water does not circulate in it.
Remark: I'm not sure if the pond is that shallow around the edges but from that day's observations, the water level had dropped by about 3cm. Water Circulation could be a possibility as I don't think a part of the school janitor's contract is ' Take Large Pole and Swirl pond Water Every day at 6pm ( try to kill as little tadpoles and guppies as possible)'


Thanks for reading my suggestions and will post picture of pie soon.*mumbles* "Now where do I get a pie..."
