Hi
I've (fingers crossed) ended my battle with all possible algae in my planted tank. quick description what I've done:
first of all:
filter/pipes cleaning (mea culpa, mea maxima culpa :D )
mechanical cleaning (tooth brush) and cutting affected leaves
added another filter (mostly for better water circulation almost nothing inside)
then:
slight PMDD change (decrease micro and a bit increase P)
water changes twice a week about 40%
H2O2 spot treatment for BGA and BBA + water changes afterwards

After nearly 4 weeks finally seems to be back to normal. Bad things happen quickly, good changes comes slowly...
Cheers
