Don't worry, just stop feeding them and force them to eat GHA, no problem, blow some detrius from your sump if they look hungry

I have the same issue, my tang is a annoyingly messy and slow with nori. Frankly I look for more export as the solution (algae reactor for me), and just accept the messy eaters to keep them fat/happy.
