There is currently nothing in the tank besides the grass and fern. I have CO2 that goes into the tank. Lighting for 10 hours a day. The tank does not sit near a window so sunlight is not an issue.I think I recognize 2 types of algae in the photos.
In the first photo, there is some brown/green algae on the short grasses, I believe.
In the second photo, there is cyanobacteria (BBA) on the java fern.
To suggest actions, you should provide additional information. What else is in the tank, feeding, lighting, duration of photoperiod, etc.?

Rid-X is an extremely sensitive chemical substance that requires you to follow certain rules and regulations while adding in your pond water. Let’s have a look at some recommendations and prohibitions of using Ridex:
Do’s
While applying Ridex into your pond, make sure you don’t have any organic matter in your pond, be it plants or fish. Ridex contains bacteria that are alien to an ecosystem that they are being introduced into. This will have an adverse effect on the plant and animal life in your pond.
Make sure the water doesn’t flow to or is connected to any other water source. If it is, ridex will contaminate that source as well and make it unusable.
Don’ts
Never put any fish or plant near a ridex applied area. Although it is advertised as not harmful to plants if applied indirectly, putting Ridex in a pond will be directly applying it to plants.
Don’t let your pet drink water or play in the pond. Drinking RidX mixed water from the pond or playing in can make your pet sick.
If you have children in your house, don’t let them near your pond after you put Ridex in it. It is harmful to them as well.
And if you have a fountain or waterfall in your pond, which is a very common feature these days, your pond water will splash to the nearby places causing harm to plants or other animals they get into contact with it.
