Light + white + water = algae
Bury your watering tubes and inch or 2 and the top will be algae free.
Are you not familiar with capillary action?

The water does wick up the perlite I'm taking from experience, perlite will/does wick up water for at least a foot.

Yup perlite or stone draws the water to it think about how you do drainage trenches with plastic pipes full of holes and surrounded by stone same idea just lets the plant draw it up instead of away like in trenches
