The invention discloses an alga control method for a freshwater environment based on cultivation of barracudas and mullets, relating to a 
water treatment method. Aiming at solving the problem that 
algae can not be stably and thoroughly controlled in a eutrophic 
fresh water body, the method comprises the following steps: at least introducing one species of estuarine / marine fishes, such as barracudas and mullets which can only be propagated in sea water, and carrying out 
desalination processing before cultivation to enable the barracudas and the mullets to be adapted to a freshwater 
living environment, wherein the mesh size in the large 
water body ensures whether the cultivated fishes can escape; dividing or mixing according to different ages, carrying out culture in 
enclosure in girds by meshes, and simultaneously cultivating and propagating silver carps, bighead carps, other local fishes and local 
shellfish; and propagating local common aquatic plants. Thus, the fishes can be fed on the 
algae in a filter-
feeding mode and simultaneously swallow 
detritus substances, thereby achieving the purpose of thoroughly purifying the 
water environment. By harvesting the cultivated and propagated 
aquatic organisms to remove 
nitrogen / 
phosphorus nutrients in water and 
humus in 
bed material from the 
water body, the method disclosed by the invention greatly improves the 
water quality of the cultivation 
water body.
