Brown alge on sand

[Reefey]

Is this a good sign wen it comes to the cycle? Tanks been running for 2 weeks now

Looks like a diatom bloom. Just a normal part of the cycle and will pass. It can mean the cycle is coming to an end, but not always. What are your params? That's the best way to know if your cycle is over.

 

[Reefey]

Ammonia (0)
PH (8 -8,5)
Nitrite (0)
Nitrate is a bit high

Looks good, your cycling is prob almost over. Just keep monitoring that nitrate, in case it hasn't spiked. Do you have any livestock yet? I'd say you could add part of your cuc or a fish, once your sure the nitrate is in check.
