I,m using 2 wav heads. 1 on the back in 1 corner pointing forward and 1 on the other side blowing across the tank. all the softy's are moving pretty good, but I still have a few spots on the bottom with red slime. do I need even more flow? all the corals look great and the rock is clean

I sound like you have good flow, look at your phosphates. I would say your phosphates are pretty high. When you test your readings are going to read lower then what they really are because the cyano is feeding on the phosphates in your system. I would suggest to balance out the phosphates .01 to .03 and nitrates 3 to 5 or a little higher and you should see your algae issue pretty much clear up.
You can use a cleaner, but the cyano will come back. FYI once the cyano is under control you might have an outbreak of Dino's and that goes back to balancing out the nutrients
