Hire the guy from the BK commercial with the small hands? I never understood the design for the edje, beautiful tanks but cleaning would drive me bonkers.

There are some algae magnets that have attachable razor blades that might work well for you.

go to the dollar store, buy a baby bottle brush and bend it so that you can reach the spots you need to reach
