Default planted tank algae issue

Hi again.


Ive searched and nothing really answered what I was looking for.

I have a tank with algae issues.

My 52g planted has algae all over the glass, my rubblernose and BNP did nothing for this, the otos didnt much either. I am loaded with MTS in this tank and they go around this stuff.

lighting is 2x40W 6500K
substrate is plain jane flourite
no Co2
Dosing excel 5ml/day
if anything it came on stronger with excel


What can I do to combat this stuff


My lights are on for 24hrs

Tank is established and planted well, not much room to plant more without removing hardscaping.

Filtration is a penguin 660R w/ sponge RUGF system and a AC70 HOB and an AC20 powerhead for cirrculation.


Thanks

Anything else let me know what I left off

Water parameters are fine, havnt had any changes in the readings in well over 10 months.
