Pics will be helpful but did you test your water in the last two weeks or so?
As far help.......... manual removal, water changes with fresh mixed salt water with RODI in a 0.0 TDS.
Slow down on feeding your livestock, reduce light period with at least a few hours to start with.
Also you can work with reactors.
Do you have a skimmer in the sump?
Again pics will be helpful as it will tell us what kind of setup you run.
Btw,

Welcome. :-)
Are you using RO/DI water for top off and mixing salt?
Have you been able to get a nitrate and phosphate level?
One turbo snail is not going to cut it, you need more algae eaters. Look at clean up crews @ ReefCleaners.org
How old is the tank?
What are you running in the reactor?
