I’ve had this brown spot for a while now and it’s growing slowly. It’s smooth and I feel like I somewhat peel it off.

Diatoms possibly. How old is the tank? Definitely seeing lots of bubble algae to.
 
I've been dealing with something very similar. Still haven't got to the bottom of it. I believe its dinoflagellates.
