The bladed side of the scraper does not remove it? Looks like normal new tank film algae. I see snails eating it. You realize that the first year is filled with various algae uglies right?

But did you use the razor blade side on it? Sometimes after you scrape it floats back and reattaches to the glass so it takes multiple scrape passes to get it off
