nothing wrong with that pink/purple algae its a sort after algae called CORALINE, alot of people cant even get it going.
That sort of growth means your CALCIUM and ALKALINITY is good.
Turn off your pumps and filters and scrape it from the glass and allow it to spread on to your rocks and it will spread.

Makes everything look great when it gets going on the Live rock

Honestly, I think your tank is yucko looking, and maybe that has something to do with your fish dying and being diseased.

Mro may hang around see what happens.

Coraline RULES scrape it off glass and let it grow on your LR

Stingrayrule, just because the blokes tank has some algae growth dont make it YUKKO, everyone has different tastes and looks of a tank,

K. Well, the algae, which, will get better with a blackout....... WILL BE BACK, if you do not fix your light problem, and I am sure your rich nutrient problem that causes algae.
BTW, that would mean a somewhat unclean tank, which no amount of flash from a camera could hide in yours.
I don't even think your rock looks too good. Hard to see with all that GACK on the wall.
