How to Control Algae?

I am wondering what the best way is to control algae in terr.s. I have a self-contained waterfall in one of my terr.s that I have to keep cleaning out, as it keeps getting an ugly, brown algae(?) in it. This isn't too much of a problem, but I'm planning to put a regular in-tank waterfall in my next terr., which I won't be able to just take out and clean. So how do you keep algae from taking over? Also, I am contemplating getting a Green Tree Frog (Hyla cinerea). If I do, how should I secure the rocks in the waterfall so that they don't fall and injure the frog?

Thanks,
