need help to ID this algea

my new tank have been cycle for 2 weeks and recently I notice some part of the rock is greener and on closer look. it look like green hairy algae.

I have added in 2 electric blue hermit and abalone and 2 snails. But they seem not able to do the jobs well.

Tank is using the JBJ 28g with 2 return pumps and a K1 wavemaker, hence I am nto sure is the flow enough?

any advise to remove this algae??

or I just leave it alone?

thanks

sorry for the lousy photos, as it taken using my iphone4
