your red algae may actually be cyano bacteria. I would test the nitrate, nitrite and ammonia levels of the tank. Also how often are you doing water changes? They do have bacterial medications you can use but this might have some negative effects on your beneficial bacteria so be careful. Tetracycline and Furan will kill it but you need to know why it's developing in your tank. Good luck.
