What the heck is it?

Last week I found a little bit of this stuff in my res, I think it is some kind of white algae (I searched here for white gooey slimy etc..). The posts that I found said that
Hygrozyme would take care of it and H2O2 can be used with it. So I did a res scrub (diluted bleach water) and soaked the pumps in H2O2, replaced the tubing etc.. I bought some Hygrozyme ($30+) and added it to my res with fresh nutes, well I thought "everythings good now", but when I checked today and noticed that the water wasn't moving much I found that glob on the circulating pump. Anyone else run into this stuff?
BTW: I am running 2 flowering areas with res tanks that are (should be) nearly identical but the other tank doesn't have this white gunk in it.
