Looks like it might be green hair algae plus cyanobacteria. I suggest the presence of cyanobacteria because there are no free algae filaments visible.

conclusion: I have used a local LFS throughout, who has a history of the aquarium and everything the aquarium has been through. they believed that this is completely natural as I have previously treated the aquarium with chemicals to combat cyano and potentially Duno (Dino x fauna) something else will then take its place. it was important to get stable p03 and po4 over a period and add good bacteria. recommended stirring in the sandy bottom (diatoms)
