Default Fountain Algae

My front yard fountain with the warm weather has developed a light (green) algae cover at the bottom. I have been adding algaecide clarifier that does not stop the problem. It was suggested to try hydrogen peroxide which also doesn’t work. I know I will probably have to drain the fountain, clean the bottom and refil, but I don’t want the same problem to start all over again. Any suggestions to remedy the problem will be appreciated.
