If you turn off the lights to kill the algae, it's just going to come back when you turn them back on. I'm sure the huge increase in lighting is whats causing it to grow faster that it was before. The long and the short of it is, algae comes from execs nutrients. Tell us about your setup and water quality. What gear are you running? How big is the tank? Using a skimmer? Using RO/DI water? What do your water tests show? How often and how much do you feed? How often do you do water changes and how much do you change? Algae outbreaks suck, but they can be resolved.
