It suddenly appeared within a week and covered all my rocks. Doesn’t look like dino and I’m sure it’s not hair algae.

Any ideas so I can treat it? I will do testing after company leaves, no time now

Kind of looks like standard green turf algae. Turbo snails should help with it. Check nitrates and phosphates. Reducing, but not eliminating these parameters will help with nuisance algae growth.
