Controlling Goldfish Pond Algae?

How can we balance our goldfish pond water with household products? We are thinking of products like baking soda, vinegar, muriatic acid, etc. We have a 6 foot x 27 foot pond. It is 1.5 feet deep at the shallow area with a 3 foot deep area. We have few water plants and full sun light. There is a homemade 30 gal. sand and gravel filter with a 3 foot to 4 foot long steam. From what we have read we have blooming algae (green water).

Get a UV light sterilizer, it will break up the algae. The water is run through the unit in which there is a UV light. It is perfectly safe for plants and fish, I run mine after my filther and pump and it works great, You can purchase a good unit for about $100.

Barley straw and barley straw liquid can be used. It will also go away on its own, If you go online there are many things to buy.
