    my ottos and SAE don't touch it, and it covers any new growth on my java moss within days

    tank:
    24 gallon, 19x15x12, no c02, 32 watt Dual Daylight 6,700k/10,000k

    From the picture, it do looks like either hair algae or brown algae. You may want to try yamato shrimp which will eat it.

    This is largely due to your SAE nibbling off the new growth of your moss causing injury and allowing the whitish fuzzy algae to appear on the injured areas.
