Redish Algae (beard Algae?)

This stuff has slowly been growing on my fake plants and driftwood. It comes off pretty easily if I swipe it with my fingers. What am I dealing with here?

100 gal tank with 60" USA Current Pro Plus LED light (7hrs on)
I currently have two live Anubias plants in there and do not dose with anything. I do 50% water changes every 10 days.

I ended up with a breakdown and do-over on my 60-gal after letting that stuff get out of control. I believe the problem(s) at the time were too much light and not enough CO2.

My Gouramis pick at it all the time but I'm betting this stuff grows faster than the fish can eat.

Just found it in mine. Sounds like I need to evacuate the fish, and light my tank on fire.
