Looks like patches of Cyanobacteria. Are bubbles forming on the tips of it? Can you give us more insight on your tank?

Live rock / dry rock?
Live sand / dry sand?
Age?
Cycled date?

I have a 6 week old cycled tank and I'm currently dealing with Cyanobacteria (which appears to be what you have). It's on the decline now and I'm seeing green algae now.

Dry rock, live sand, finished cycling late this past May. It has had fish since then so like 4 months now
