Hey Greg, if you have any Red Slime on the substrate of your tank i find that if you bury it with other substrate in your tank that isnt covered in algea it ends up dying instantly. that is what i did with my tank and it worked great!

Filter out Phosphates, regardless what test is showing, your live rock and sand is a phosphate storage, you may read low in the water column but that doesn't mean actual phos are low, if you have algae that usually means you have phosphates.
