I see green hair algae, is that what we're talking about? There are many critters that will eat it. You may also want to up your filtration a bit

Green hair algae. Manually remove/siphon out, check NO3 and PO4 are in range, lessen feeding, shorten light intervals, add CUC if you don’t have and a tang or 2 depending on tank size and lawnmower blenny. Be patient. Will take time to eradicate.
