You could try no lights for 3 days. That's always worked for me...but if your phosphates are high...it'll just come back. How often do you feed?
Skimmer will help some...not all.
How often do you change cpe?
Sorry for all the questions..you could try to post same in water chemistry forum..

Phosphates are less than 0.25. Ammonia is 0. Nitrates are 10. My lights ramp up and down to full intensity (which I am keeping at less than 50%). The lights are on for 8 hours but most of the time they are ramping up or down. They are only on what I have set as full intensity for @3.5 hours. I have shut the lights out for 3 days but after the lights go back on the algae comes back. I only feed every 2-3 days
