Yikes - that mostly explains it... You need a monster cleanup force, dude.

Check what some of the online retailers recommend for your size of tank (20g) and you'll see that you've been about 24 animals short for a few months now... (
Look down at Package #2).
As soon as levels permit is the time to get your crabs and snails in there, so they can stay ahead of the growth curve for nuisance algae in its various stages. A good mix of critters is important, as has been mentioned here.
