Can anyone identify this stuff in my tank?

Stuff is growing like crazy. Though I don't have a phosphate number I have been running about 1000ml of Rowaphos the last month or so. The skimmer (perhaps undersized for this tank Deltec AP 902) is pulling a full cup of nog every 2-3 days. Tank has been running for about 4 months now. Think this is just normal algae growth throught the break in period or something else?
 
if its been growing like crazy, detecting phosphate levels will be tough. but we can see there are phosphates...

I have the same issue, despite running more than enough phoslock. and my algae is different....
