I don't know how big your pond is, but our water-feature-water-reserve thing is not that big and can theoretically be hand-bailed. I bought one of these instead
at the local drip irrigation and backyard pond supply place.
I suggest you figure out why the algae happened---if you don't know, it will come back. I have seen something called "pond shock" for sale at the drip irrigation and pond supply place that apparently nukes... stuff in your water. If you have such an establishment around you, maybe talk to them before doing anything.
I found that just keeping debris out (a running battle, I use a mesh skimmer-strainer from the kitchen aisle at the supermarket) and replacing the fabric filter part of the water filter for the pump intake made our most icky pond problems go away.
King sized beds are great. Kind of a pain to make. The mattress is essentially un-flippable and difficult to turn head to foot. Go to a big place and take your time lying on mattresses. Most people rush through it and you should spend like 20 minutes lying and moving a bit on any mattress you are considering seriously. There will be a lot of NOs and enough UM MAYBEs in mattressland to keep you thinking. Try to shop over a couple of days and revisit the candidates. Don't let them pressure you. You're going to be spending a lot of time with your new friend.
