oh dear...water getting browner!
 

My water is getting browner by the week....should I just do a water
change, and make some modifications to my Skippy Filter, such as
adding quilt batting to the top, under the water plants?

oh dear...water getting browner!
 

Mine as well.. but my peace lillies have started to bloom, and my WH is
doing ok, so I assume the fish are still fine.

It now looks like a full algae bloom, but brown instead of green.

A water change is gonna get done Wednesday...will i need to put
bacteria back in the filter?

The filter will still have bacteria on it, so no bacteria needs to be added.
Declor will need to be added if you are on a public water supply. Water
changes need to be done regularly, about 10% of the pond every week. This
will dilute whatever is making the pond brown, chemical buildup, salt
buildup, and help to make for better overall water quality.
