What did you use to start tank, Tap water or ro/di water? What do you use for top off water? This may be the cause. Try using ro/di water instead of tap water if that's what you're using.

the main prob is the water you are using. once you use only ro/di you will never see any sign of algae again. also if the algae eally bothers you, leave the lights off for a day or 2.
you could also use distilled water, but it has more impurities [which cause algae blooms]
