The algae on the glass is just one of those regular maintenance type things we all have to deal with.
The best way is to use a magnet cleaner on the glass daily, this daily swipe chore not only keeps the glass clean in just a few seconds it also will keep the harder deposits of calcium and coraline algae from starting.
Most reef keepers have to clean the glass a couple times a week, some report only having to do this weekly. Really depends on your lighting and how it affects the algae growth on the glass, amongst this would be sun light from a window and excess nutrients in the tank. People who run gfo constantly or ultra low nutrient systems, even carbon dosing report they have to clean the glass less often.
Sometimes I think my glass is clean until I pass the magnet cleaner and see the actual difference.
For what it's worth there is t really a way around glass cleaning maintence ;)

This is community of very friendly people.

Also, cleaning the glass is a pain. It's really dependent on your water hardness and bioload. I use newspaper and vinegar, and it usually cleans enough to not leave a streak and gets a lot of the easy stuff off. You may need to soak to your tank if it's built on.

In regards to algae,you may want to look into buying or making a algae scrubber.Your tank may just need to cycle a bit more.In time the algae should become more managenble.
