Can anyone id this algae? It’s very short, brown and incredibly hard to scrape off. I need a steel brush. Tangs will not touch it and it can even grow on coralline. I’m thinking some kind of turf algae. Thanks

I think it looks alot like green turf algae or maby early stages of hair algae, but not sure so would wait for more opinions. :)
Thanks. It’s just very brown and not green. And doesn’t grow long. Stays really short like 3-4mm.
 
I wish someone would identify it as I have the same thing in my 9 months old tank.
