Help please with white feathery stuff

Does anybody know what this stuff is and how to get rid of it? It has appeared on everything in the tank. Removed it from the glass and used toothbrush on some of the DIY rocks but not on the live rock. It has been white not green and slimey feeling.

The alkalinity is low and calcium is high. Using reef builder to raise alkalinity.
all other parameters are ok
90 gal, 2-250 MH, 2 VHO actinics
NO3 - 0
PO4 - <.1
NO2 - 0
NH4 - 0
PH - 8.2
Ca - 600+
Alk - 0
Sp gravity 1.025
RO/DI with <4ppm TDS
Tank had only been set up 6 weeks and this showed up after 3

By the way I have been listening to the podcast and almost caught up now that I have a MP3 player. They have been very informative. Keep up the good work.
