What about a clean up crew? Is there anything in there that eats algea?

If you or someone you know has a TDS meter, I'd check that water coming out of the windmill station. Sometimes they do not really keep up with the replacement of their filters. It would be an interesting experiment to get water from a different source and see if this helps resolve most of your algae problems.

I would fire the clean-up crew.

Execute them!

WOW!

If that is only after one week you realy need to find the cause of the phosphates and turn off the lights!
