Any suggestion?

I have heavily planted tanks and don't vacuum or scrape algae from the glass. I just change half the tank water weekly and check the filter equipment and I'm done.
If you have a few plants in your tank, you could vacuum the substrate a little, avoiding the area around the plant, but you don't want to take away all the nutrients from your plants.
IMO you just need to replace half the tank water every week and routinely check the filter equipment to see if the media needs rinsing or replaced.

You aren't supposed to change the media right?
