What color is your filter when you clean it? Is it green? If so, it is algae. Do you change your 8 watt UV bulb once a year? If not, that is why the algae is not being killed.
What size is your pump? If it is too strong, the water will flow through the UV too fast and the algae will not be destroyed.
