Brown algae, diatoms really, doesn't usually show up in a tank more than a year old, as it mostly feeds on excess silicates. Did you recently add any decorations or extra gravel? And is your water from a city source, or well? Sometimes you can get excess silicates and things from well water as the season changes.
