Tell them to throw a few bales of barley (it has to be barley) straw in the pond - it'll clear up the algae. No need to break them open. ETA Now it's all redone, the owner needs to fence most of it off, leaving one or two areas of bank for the cattle to access the water. If not, they'll soon have all those edges broken down again...
