First time pool owner here……I had green algae in my pool. I have shocked it twice. Second time I went out the next morning and the water was crystal clear but all algae had clumped together at the bottom. I then tried to vacuum the algae out but the more I messed with it the more my pool turned green again. How do I get the algae out without this happening again.

Welcome to TFP. Good to have you here. We've all learned the hard way that this is the only way.
There's some early steps learning-wise, such as ABCs of water chemistry, Pool Care Basics, and ordering a test kit Test Kits Compared
The most expensive way and unsatisfying way is to go to a pool store and get "pool stored"
Edit: to add link ABC's of Pool Water Chemistry
