No, it would make them in the size range of bacteria. Green water is an eukaryotic Chlorophyta. Nothing bacterial, these have organlles , Chloroplast etc. There are smaller eukaryotic algae than this as well.

The cells I culture are roughly 2-3 days old. Yours maybe fat and healthy. 
They should also be very fast, try using mineral oil, or place a sample in the dark for 4 days/Chill them rapidly and look for 1/2 dead ones.
