Most likely diatoms. Totally normal for new tanks to get a diatom bloom followed by a green hair algae bloom so be prepared. 
Not to worry though as it should go away on its own. When your cycle completes you can add a cleanup crew of some snails and such and they should also make quick work of it. 
Also, the use of RO/DI water is highly recommended as your water source. It will be the first defense from algae blooms.
