I would ensure light photo period is limited to 8-9 hours total. On some lights that change color and intensity over time this is nigh unto impossible…. That is why on my Finnex planted plus I use a customized color spectrum setting and control the dimming and time period by a nicrew inline timer.
I would eliminate the blue “moonlight” settings except for relatively shorter periods you are using it to enjoy the tank when main lighting period is over.
But by the same token light settings are not the holy grail of algae control…
reading, re reading, studying and implementing information on the 2 hr Aquarist website was a breakthrough on Algae control for me.

the tank and substrate cleaning, filter servicing, plant trimming, flow, waterchanges, maintaining stable nutrients and hardness, etc are all important too…
Plants alter their physiology to optimize for existing conditions. This causes growth to slow as energy is diverted to optimize. In a Co2 injected tank this takes about 10 days. On a non injected tank it can take longer, up to 6 weeks…. If you alter conditions again before plants optimize, you start the clock again…
once plants are optimized to stable and good conditions, they tend to grow well and defend themselves well against algae and suck up nutrients. New growth tends to be optimized, old growth covered by Algae is probably not going to recover. It is probable being sacrificed by the plant.. trimming and removing those leaves removes algae that will not seed more algae…stops leaching waste organics that algae likes to feed on, allows better circulation of nutrients and flushing of waste organics, allows better light access to other plants etc,…
Youtube presenters make it sound as easy as reduce your lighting and or nutrients. Ie two levers to control algae. Reality is that there is a whole lot more that can help…
