I recently purchased a UV clarifier. My water has been green for about
a month or more now. Hyacintch not really taking off, we are now
getting into 80+ degree weather in GA. My pond gets full sun from about
11AM to about 6PM. Not good, ...............

======================
I got the best results from my UV lights (Tetra brand) when used at around
1/2 the max gph they recommended. It took them less than a week to clear
the ponds. Now I depend on plant filtration (to starve the algae) and large
water lilies to shade the water. So far so good.
