Appears to be the glass.... your water is clear in those cups
But on my photo you can see the glass upper the water line, no green/yellow at all.
 
It’s probably green light bouncing off the glass from your green rocks.
 
It's your glass
I tested that many times:

When I look trough the glass there is no green or yellow.
Only when there is a water the color become greenish.
It’s probably green light bouncing off the glass from your green rocks
Is there any way to fix that?

I think I need to do the bucket test to be sure, glass can be too small to see the green/yellow water.
