Please help identify this algae/problem
Because of work, I've neglected taking care of my tank for the last couple of months and because of this, this algae problem (I hope it's algae) has taken over my tank almost completely. I've siphoned as much as I can, bought a tang, tuxedo urchin and I've added GFO in my reactor to help combat this problem.
Can anyone help me in identifying what kind of algae this is? Is it GHA or is it a film algae? Will the tang or the urchin eat it or do I need something else? Many thanks as always.

Hair algae. Keep up with weekly water changes using RODI water. Add a couple of turbo snails as well.
