New ponds needs to be cleaned

[BBouchard]

Help! My husband and I are buying a house that has a pond in the back, what is the easiest and best way to clean it? I well have a very hard time draining the water. So any way to avoid that would be great. It is covered in algae and had a few plants growing. You can't see the bottom.

Do you know anything about the pond? Measurements? Gallons? Filtration? Are there fish or other creatures inhabiting it presently? Have you tested all of the parameters yet? Is it a natural or man made pond?

We need some more information in order to be able to make any suggestions!

I know nothing about it, I will be going there on Saturday so I will take a picture nd try to get measurements.

With as green as it is, I don't anything is living, it is man made.
