Is this algae just like GHA? It looks kind of like a green film that has been over my rocks and a sort of hairy looking part will rise from it. The tank is almost 3 months old and just trying to figure out what kind of algae this is as I have not gotten it in other tanks before, maybe I need a few more trochus/astrea snails to help rid of this along with taking a reduction in feeding?

Kinda looks like a mixture of both. Adding more CUC should help knock this back! You could cut feeding a touch but just make sure your N03 and P04 are still detectable.
