Tank seems small to suggest a Naso Tang.
It is my experience that algae will grow if the conditions are right for it to grow. IF...IF...you found a particular critter/fish that ate the algae you happen to have...then it will eat that algae and you'll have a different kind of algae in no time.
My advice: Put in a refugium and grow algae there where you can harvest it easily. (if you don't already have one) Weed/pluck/tweeze out any fast growing algae from the display, but let any slow growing algae grow large.
I think it is very difficult to create a system that grows NO algae. If you accept that, start planning what algae you want to grow and where.
That's my experience, FWIW.
