Black Dust Algae?

[David Housewright]

I haven't seen this algae well labeled online. it doesn't have the hair that I see with the black beard algae. any ideas of what it is and how to get rid of it? started just on the anubius shown here, and now I am seeing it on a few other plants in the tank like another anubius and some on an amazon sword. thanks in advance,

David

Lower light intensity. Increase water changes. Remove excessive organics.  Dose a liquid carbon to temporarily remove the ugly.

thank you for your help. I wasn't sure since it really doesn't have the hair that I see in some of the pictures, but that website certainly shows exactly what I have. I have lowered the level on my lights so hopefully that helps.
