The first pic is green spot algae and the second pic is thread algae.

All you parameters look good. What brand of test kits are you using? Are they out of date?

Do you have algae eaters?

Is the tank planted lightly, meduim or heavily?

Your tank is not balance somewhere although your readings are good. You may need to dose less or more depending on how your plants look. Remove as much by hand as possible cutting off badly affected leaves. Reducing light to 10 hours daily may help some.

How long has the tank been set up?

Sllo... I would not remove any bulbs to decrease wattage, I would only reduce your daily lighting down to 10 hours.
