Hey guys so very odd. My convict tang who has been very healthy, in fact tank has been healthy for awhile now, died last night and now today I noticed this crap growing on the sides. Any idea what it is? How do I treat it? All parameters are in normal range.

Yep, that is coralline algae. It is a harmless algae that shows your tank is cycled and maturing. This would not have been related to the death of your convict.
 
I'd say coralline also, this is unlikely but is you're alk super high - calcium carbonate precipitation?
