Tank is about four months old, this algae started about two weeks ago and I can’t seem to shake it. I’ve turned the red/green off and I’m strictly running blues now. For the video I turned them up a bit. I’ve scrubbed the rocks in combination with a water change. It’s back the next morning in full force.

Welcome to the uglies...
Check parameters, do tour water changes using high quality water and ride it out.
You can always tey to manually remove some of the algae on the rocks when doing a WC, but time and patience is your best answer at this point...

Haven’t check my parameters in awhile but I will. Just wanted to be sure it’s the uglies and not something that will not go away eventually on its own to some extent
