I assume you don't have a refugium? Do you run a sump? Even though your nitrates and phosphates are very low, running GFO and a phosphate remover might prove helpful. I pretty much gave up testing for nitrates or phosphates as the algae can pull it out of the water almost as fast as it's introduced if things are running smoothly. For me that's algae in my refugium, but it seems that for you it's algae in the tank.

I don't have room for a refugium in my sump so I haven't been running one, although I run a TLF GFO reactor and I run BRS carbon in a nylon bag.
