If not phosphates then what? There are many reasons out there but I'm not sure I'd agree with all of them
I personally think my recent outbreak was due to my not changing in lights soon enough. I've heard it could be caused by low circulation but IME that (circulation) caused me hair algae and once increased the circulation the h.a. disappeared so I'm not sure I'd blame circulation as often as it's blamed.
If your tank is new then that could be the problem, since I've never experienced this I can't say if I'd use anything (because I'm not sure it would keep it away) or wait it out, best take advise from those who've experienced this.
