Default Early signs of Cyano

Frig, I thought I was almost in the clear with nuisance algae as my system is 7.5 months old now but lately I've noticed red slime algae starting to propagate.

I want to get on top of it instantly before it becomes a problem.

I'm going to cut back the amount of food I put in the tank as I think I've been getting a bit too giving in that area and its starting to result in unnecessary nutriets in the water column.

Skimmer is running as per usual.

What else can I do to battle it? I'll be doing water changes perhaps a bit more frequently.

Any other tips? Will my Sand Sifting Goby put a dent in it or will he stay away from those areas?
