i tried water hyacinth, it just melted in my pond.
I think might now have enough nutrients in my pond for it.

That's no good! You have to try aquaponics haha, or some people make a "bog" filter which is like a gravel bed with lots of plants in like bamboos or whatever that'll help polish the water :)
