starting to see this brown algae growth u dually after i feed reef roids, i have been over feeding my tank in the past few days bc i’m medicating focus/metroplex so my nitrates and phosphates spiked a little.

what kind of algae is this and how do i get rid of it? i’m going to cut back on feeding now

current water parameters
nitrate : 10ppm
phosphate: 0.06ppm
Alk: 10.9
salinity: 35.3
temp: 72
