Algae identification
This tank is approximately 4 to 5 months old. I have 2 others that are about 1 1/2 years old. Haven't seen this type of algae before can anyone identify.. On rock and glass not on sand bed.

Pics under white lights and closer up would be helpful. Can’t even tell if it’s red or green algae.
 
Okay I will post another picture first thing tomorrow thanks
 
Here are some new pictures of the unknown algae.
I pulled some out and it's a brownish color. I notice it's really attacking my zoas

I think it’s bryopsis. If that’s the case , the only thing that takes care of it is reef flux (fluconazole). It’s totally reef safe and works pretty quickly.
