    You don't have to cycle your tank with the lights on.


    The brown algae is normal.


    NO you don't have to wait 6mos for livestock---Get your params to 0 and start adding hardier critters slowly.


    Good Luck and be patient!

    The brown stuff is diatoms. They are a normal part of the cycling process. They feed on silicates.
    No worries they will pass in time
