Okay. @Salty hands redid his tank because of algae issue after setting it up for almost a year. We basically took all the rocks out and he hand scrubbed(with love) all the rocks and redid the aquascape. The algae did come back but the last time I was there(3 weeks) ago, the algae was fading away.
Hopefully, he can comment on this. I never really did anything when my tank was smothered with algae. Just try to suck it out as much as possible during the weekly water change. YMMV.
