Black Spot Algae...

Some of my slower growing plants, with large leaves, seem to be afflicted
by
lots of little pin prick sized black spots.
This seems to be a type of algae but I cannot seem to find much
information
about this particular form. It is impossible to scrape off, the only thing
I
can do is remove the afflicted leaves.
My tank is well planted and all seem to be doing quite well, and Nitrate
is
holding at 25ppm. Other tank specs: Co2 Injection at around 1 bubble a
second, PH at around 6.8. Lighting from 2 x 30" Arcadia Freshwater tubes.
Any ideas?
Thanks
JFM
