Serious Algae Issue

Hello all -

I have a new 58 Gallon setup going and over the past week, I have this "algae" growing all over my live rock. I thought at first it was byropis, but in talking with another saltwater enthusiast, he said he'd never seen byropis this large. Anyone help me out with some identification?





Thanks in advance

P.S. The algae is feathery in appearance and the stems it is sitting on look to be more fragile than hardy/sturdy. Of course where it seems the worse is in the higher flow area of the tank. Currently have 10 Scarlet Hermits, 10 Nerite snails, 10 Cerinth snails, 5 Onyx Nassaris, and 5 Chestnut Turban snails as cleanup crew. Borrowed 1 lettuce slug from friend when I thought the issue was byropis.
