    If would have them underground you could keep them from freezing easier. Plus, you wouldn't have those tanks so visible...

    Nitrifying bacteria also work! I put them in my pond to prevent algae growth and they work great. I use the stuff by Brightwell Aquatics. But they do work best when there are rocks in the container to give them a lot of surface area to grow on. They will eat algae and fix the nitrogen, but if no other plants are in the container, the amount of added nitrogen will be quite low.

    Actually, collecting water off of a shingle roof is no good because of the chemicals in shingles, I've seen drip lines eat through bushes...
