My fish tank goes green quicker than it used to. We got the two pretty good sized goldfish in the fall and the water didn't get really green until 2 1/2 weeks. Now we have to change the water every week if we want to see the fish. Whats happening?

  The pond behind my work has 5 alligators in it. Lately a company has been going out there & spraying a chemical to kill the plant life & algae in the water. Is this harmful to the gators & other wildlife that live by the pond?

  I have a 40 gal tank. I moved it to a spot that gets morning indirect sun light. The problem isn't surface algae, but free floating algae. The water is green, barely translucent. I have tried to change the water but to no effect. What can I do?
