I use water hyacinth in my pond also. I have a pump, filter, a waterfall, and fish. However, I use well-water and no chemicals except for ClearZyme enzymes. Some ideas here:
Do you use chemical algae-killers in your pond? These also kill water hyacinths.
Do the hyacinths get enough sun? They like full sun.

If you bought your water hyacinths from a pond store, the owner may have some ideas about what’s happening.
