Picture?

 

You should siphon the sand bed, feed less, more water changes with GOOD water, blast the rocks with a powerhead occasionally.

 

Maybe add some GFO and carbon as well

Why do you dose NO3PO4x if you don't even test for phosphates? I'd get a Hanna meter to check them. And my guess is that your nitrates aren't zero either if you have hat much algae growth.

All that stuff too.
