Just a random thought. What if I angled my lights over my tank to not shine as much on the front glass. Maybe even move them closer to the front with them angled.
what’s your thoughts?
 
Ya, when I saw this question, I was like a few fellow members and thought of @Adam It really does help. I have a small fixture on my 20 IM AIO that put out a limited "cone" of light and you can absolutely tell where the light actually shines on the glass. 3-4" down from the top is where the algae start growing. If I move the light back a bit, it'll start growing a bit lower on the front glass and a bit higher on the back glass.
