    First syphon as much as you can. Feed less, if your feeding once a day or more reduce by half. Change your bulbs if they are older or lessen the lighting time, might even need blackout for a few days. Increasing flow also helps as well as running GFO. However to really get rid of it you must find out the source and correct the problem or it will continue to comeback. Params of your water chemistry would be helpful plus pics and an equipment list of what you are running. Hope this helps;)
