Your tank is too small other wise any big plant eating fish like goldfish will polish it off...or reduce light, or take your net and net them out...and reduce light...

Add lots of salt also work but not so good for your fish.

joe jaskot already told you the best duckweed-eating tropical to use: silver dollars.

Best bet for the short term is to net out the bulk of the duckweed (throw it out outside in the trash to save your plumbing). Hair algae problems are quickly solved with american flagfish or with freshwater shrimp like CRS.
 
I have other plants in these tanks. Its a planted discus tank. I love my aponogeton and crypts and I spent a lot of money to acquire them. No silver dollars. They will eat the rest of my plants. And probably b4 they eat the weed.
