I still have lots of pest algae (including the coraline).
Patience is the key to dealing with pest algae, you have to wait it out. Eventually it will die, get eaten or another will take its place although in my experience nothing smothers coraline, given time it will grow over anything (I'm surprised the fish aren't covered in it )
