White, milky, snot-like algae on glass? (Pics + Video)

Hey everyone,

I've been trying to figure this problem out for a long time. I've had my tank for about 3 months now and every since just a few days ago, I started getting this white, snot like substance all over my glass, epspecially in the corners. I have no idea what it is and I'm hoping that someone here can identify AND solve this problem for me.

Thanks.

Are you using any supplements, or dosing any vodka/sugar or other carbon source?

I had a small hermit crab die, but my shrimp ate that up real quick. Ammonia/nitrate/ite all fine.
