It's red slime algae. Excess nutrients. Siphon it out and take care of your water parameters. This link is useful on prevention and extermination.

Cyanobacteria for sure. I've writtin dozens of replies on the subject and since I'm strapped for time will reccomend searching these forums. You're not alone, cyano is unfortunately all too common
