Yup you get to change fuel filters. Actually as Allen says most of it will be caught in the screen.
To keep it from continuing you need to add a algae killer to your fuel tank. Howe's is NOT a pestcide. There is a product that I put in with every tank fill up called KILLUM. Made by a chemical company in the mid-west - FPPF I think. You can find it with a net search.
It takes a pretty hefty dose (maybe 8 oz in 250 gal) to kill the algae after that about 2 oz per 250 gal will keep it clear.
Or you could just start using the fuel so the tank get filled every week or two.
