Hi folks! Currently have a bacterial bloom in my tank, but I have been noticing this translucent green algae on my rocks/bunched into hair and turf algae. Anyone have an idea what it could be?

I see a nudibranch (possible yellow which feeds off coral) and what be ulva. Its hard to determine at times in a container versus actual tank

After looking up Ulva, I think you are pretty spot on there. I wouldn't think theres Nudi's because everyone in the tank is pretty unbothered, but always a possibility!
