Two main options. 1. Live with the pond one full year to learn what it grows and how it performs. Then next year you will know what your problems are and can better plan how to deal with them. 2. Tilapia work great at eating filamentous algae providing a bass does not eat the tilapia first. As soon as the water temperature stabilizes at 65F add the suggested amount of tilapia (6"-12") if bass are present.
In Texas a good place to check for tilapia is: Overton's Fish Farm the website shows them to be $12/lb for 6"-12" pond stockers.
