There's these green spots that are light and grow a couple days after I clean my dock. They never used to grow before. I think it's algae. Is algae bad?

Not at all. If it bothers you, you can clean it off but it doesn't bother your turts.

Hey eazy, just a couple of weeks ago I was
nervous too. I got a Plecostomus, sucker fish
to help clean up practically all the algae in my tank.
Just make sure the sucker fish is a bit bigger than
your turts, they may harass him.
