I would not add nitrate. I would make sure your phosphate levels are low and up your co2 if possible. then I would add some trace fertilizers. you might have excess nitrate that might be fueling the algea
That looks like a good size tank so you may want to look into pressurized co2. As far as ferts go...http://www.gregwatson.com/ thats the best bang for you buck. Just mix it yourself. If you want a good ready to go product then the Flurish line of products is the way to go but can get costly.
