Grass carp (GC) do not like eating algae.

How clear is the water?
If the algae was controlled after the GC went in,,,, turbid water would have reduced the ability of the algae to thrive.

Putting GC in is very easy --- getting them out is very difficult. If you can remove some of them, restock with tilapia who LOVE eating algae. Then the winter's colder winter temps usually removes tilapia.

Look up catching grass carp on YouTube. Some of those ideas may work for you. Report back with any of your results so others can benefit from your learning.
