I'm not seeing a lot in algae but you appear to have a nutrient deficiency going on. What is your nitrate and phosphate levels and what ferts are you using?

Here's a great algae guide with pic's you can compare your too... James' Planted Tank - Algae Guide.
 
It sort of looks like the beginning of black beard to me. What is your lighting, ferts, any co2 or liquid carbon?

I have 7000k-10000k lighting, Seachem flourish excel, no co2, and some carbon from the Floursih excel.
