Hi is this a type of hair algae or turf ?

this is a new tank 50% live rock from gulfliverock from floridas ocean, and half Marco rock.

I was wondering all this green hair looking algae stuff on the Marco rocks only pretty sure it spread from the y cure live rock

How would you go about getting rid of this?

if it were my tank, I would be planning on 2-4 weeks of lower light, with little or no white/red spectrum and carefully manually removing what you can. Small tuxedo urchin or two to get the new stuff..

good luck, we have all been there
