My tank is 15 gallons and has been up and running for 2 months now and I’m about 3 weeks into the diatoms faze and am starting to get quite a bit of algae blooming. I’ve reduce my feeding to once a day and also added a small protein skimmer on. I’ve got 2 clowns, 2 tiny hermit crabs which run around like crazy and a blood red shrimp with us the laziest guy ever (not much of a cleaner. My questions is what other steps can I take to get rid of the algae. Would it be worth adding another type of fish that feeds on algae? Should I start dosing micro Baxter clean? Do I just wait it out

That looks really good in the video. You could add a Mexican turbo snail and that stuff will be gone in a short time. I wouldn't add anymore fish.
