It sounds like dinoflagellates or brown "algae." Its not really an algae since it doesn't need light to live. It tends to show up in newly set up tanks, dirty tanks, or tanks with low light.
In your tank it sounds like it is feeding off organic wastes in your tank. Do some water changes to remove the organic buildup.
Otto cats also eat the stuff. Just make sure if you get ottos that you get at least 3 of them since they need company.
