I've got one patch of the tank where spirogyra loves to grow - it is quite a small amount, but it grows quite quickly. If I remove the 2 or 3 threads I can see at the water change each week then within a few days you can see it growing back again. I think it reared its head when I ran out of CO2 a few months ago and used Excel until I got the new FE sorted out.
I've got no algae at all elsewhere beyond a small amount of GDA on some of the larges pebbles, I did hope that removing it as soon as I noticed the threads would help but it seems rather persistent! At a guess the area of the tank where it grows has the worst flow to it, would this partly be to blame for it being hard to shift?
