Algae on roots?

Some of the roots on my Vandas have a green coating on them. Is this Algae? Can I just leave them alone or do I need to do something about it?

Thanks for your input.

I think I will hang a 12" wood basket about 12" below the 12" wood slat and layer the roots in the basket. It will add some weight but I can make longer hangers so it can continue to grow higher.
