That is ostreopsis.

UV at 1 watt per 3 gallons with super slow flow.
Dose up nitrates and phosphates. >10 and > .1 respectively
Run GAC; these things are quite toxic (plus they smell bad)
Clamp some filter floss in high flow/light areas of the glass. Rinse each night.
No phyto, no aminos anywhere near the tank for 6 months.
No GFO, and no water changes until 2 weeks clear.

Should be clear in 2-6 weeks if you do all steps.
