black velvet on plants??

I was just at the local Hos. and in their waiting room they have a 50 tank in it are 3 huge angelfish and a large plant....on all the edges of the plant there is a soft black velvet What the heck is it?? Oh and the few new leaves dont have any black on them.

It's called black brush algae and it's a tough one to eliminate - see photo on this link: http://www.floridadriftwood.com/algae_identification.html
