It looks like some kind of light brown algae and I wanted to know if anyone has came across this. I apologize for not explaining thoroughly. When I do my water changes, it makes my water cloudy. I have fowlr and only 1 damsel yellow tail and a maroon clown fish plus some cuc.

Do you blast clean your rock with a powerhead before water changes? They look kind of like there is a layer of detritus on them with maybe some algae or bacteria starting to grow on the surface. i presume this tank is only a few months old or so?
 
The tank is about 10 years old or more. I try and keep up with water changes. At least twice a month.
