I believe that one is caused by phosphates exceeding the recommended ratio of P : N of 1:10 to 1:20. Do you happen to have a phosphate test kit?
no i don't, but how do get rid of it, i got id of some of the fish in the tank so maybe that will help
phosphates tend to come from some foods.
water changes, and less feeding should help.
I've heard good results with products like Phos-zorb.

Depending on the plant, anything from physical removal, to excel treatments, to in extreme cases bleach solution dips, are all methods of controlling beard algae. Also, as Evercl said, phosphate control is very important.
