I know you posted that your parameters are stable, but any chance you can give us some exact numbers? Also what lighting it's under and what are you feeding it if you're feeding it? Everything else seems to be happy.

I’d be more concerned with Phosphate (PO4).
Looking at your sand bed, seems like you have a moderately high nutrient level in your system, check also on your Nitrate (NO-3) levels.

What are you putting in your tank?

I’d get rid of the 6,500k light tube for one thing.

Usually, bio cubes come with 6,500k and a 420-450nm actinic as standard light fixture, can be tubes or led.
Anyway, anything you put in your tank, fishfood, liquid coral food, etc are converted to Ammonia and Nitrate as fish and coral waste.
However, Phosphate builds up at the same rate from fishfood, coral food you put in, most likely some Silicates on that too.
Corals consume these two compounds and this is what feeds your algae too.
