If it happens to be legit, no they’re not scooping algae because they don’t have anything to scoop it into.
That said, during algal blooms in estuaries et cetera physically removing it is part of the process. If a healthy estuary is free of whatever variety of algae, but it gets infested somehow for example due to fertiliser run off from farms, then stopping the fertiliser may not be enough to solve the problem because the estuary is clogged up with algae.
Then where does it go? There’s physical remnants left behind. That doesn’t just disappear.
Just like you have to skim a regular pool, I’m sure you want to keep solid waste out of the reflecting pool to keep from overwhelming a filtration system that’s simply not built for the load.
Please tell me they’re not trying to scoop all the algae out of there.
I assumed it was a generated image.
At the very least, the water is too green.

If you shock it, that kills the algae, right?

Just grab em by the algae, what’s taking so long?
