It's most likely an algae bloom
From removing the plants. You can go pick up a bottle of algae remover and that should work.

Better to actually use a uv sterilizer for this as well as change some water. The plants were sucking up nutrients and providing sun light cover. The combination of nutrients and more light is the cause. Personally I'm not a fan of the chemical treatments. The pond may need some shading as well.
