Algae Covering Glass

I have had my 75 gallon tank set up since september. It is stocked with 2 black clowns, 3 green chromis, 1 scooter blenny, 1 copperband butterfly, and 1 yellow tang. I have 2 emerald crabs, about 15 blue legs, and about 10 turbos as a clean up crew. Every day I clean algae off the glass and the next day it is covered again. How to i stop this or at least slow it down? I have a 8x54 nova extreme, emperor 400 filter, and a cpr aero force skimmer. Thanks in advance for the help!

As a general rule i tend to follow at least one cleaner per gallon. i would suggest adding more of a CUC to help keep it at bay.
Good luck, Ali

I will post a pic tomorrow because i just cleaned it. Are astreas the same as turbos because i have about 10? I have to scrub mine for a little bit before it comes off. My sand also turns green around the glass
