and welcome @Rick H
Need more info, size of pond, filter, plants, fish etc? Plants really help get rid of algae and keep it at bay. What kind of algae, tiny floating surface or long stringy stuff?

So that's about 792 gallons here in the U.S. I think a skimmer would do you well!

I think there is a type of algae that floats during the day and sinks at night....it has something to do with sunlight, temperature and O2. Hmmmmmm, can't remember the name of it but I had it one year and it went away.
