Do you have a "water softener"?

Think about what you did immediately before and subsequent to the algae showing up.

The problem may be an "excess cause" instead of a "deficiency cause".

Your are doing "something right" because the red pigmented plant is still exhibiting a dark red tint.

IMHO, and this is my typical knee jerk reaction, do not feed for three days and then feed for seven days at half of your typical quantity.

Decrease the lighting period by 20%. (This statement may be incorrect but I would try this first.)

Post again in five days.
