From what I understand, those sorts of protista form when the humidity is too high, as the peat might be kept too wet! In addition to that, maybe it is not receiving enough sunlight? At least that was the problem for me!

hope this helps!

It can be algae but its harmless, just give it light and not really wet, I constantly get it on my trays and I now let them dry out, don't see them anymore.
