As another member said, I would look into a larger water change and possibly run a little carbon and GFO (Granulated Ferric Oxide) double check your temperature settings; also if possible try another test kit.
I am running carbon and gfo I stated that in my post.

+ 1 at east you try to get the food forthe algae out of the water. But I'm a bit baffled by 0.00 phosphate.

Sometimes rock can leach phosphate into a tank, not enough to measure, but enough to course algae growth, but than at least I experienced a hear algae, not a algae water
