red slime?

I have a 125 gallon FOLWR with a large lion, huma huma, grouper, niger and toad fish. I seem to grow a red slime on the rocks and the gravel. Every couple of weeks I clean it off the rocks and scrape up as much as I can off the sand. I have treated with red slime remover and chemi pure multiple times... but it doesn't go away. Any suggestions?

I have plenty of circulatation.....3 rio 1400 placed around the tank, a rio 2500 sump blowing water back into the tank and 2 hang on penguin 200's. there is always a pretty good current in the tank so I don't think that is it.

Thats how I got rid of cyano in my 180g shark tank. 50-60g Water changes every week until it went away. I ended up needing I think 3 of these big wc's before it was all gone. Worked for me. I also used kent poly ox along with the WC's.
