Green algae

[Dan06]

Hey everybody, I have a 2 week old 29 gallon tank now, it has .25 ammonia, 0 nitrite 0 nitrate and a ph of 7.0 that has been stable.

4 days ago the water started to cloud, ammonia was at .25 and everything else 0. Now the water has increasingly gotten cloudier and I recently did a 25% change and the water in my buckets was green. So I'm having an algae bloom.

Is this typical of the nitrogen cycle? Should I just let it run it's course and wait it out, or should I use polyester in the filter and do a water change or two to clear the water again? I don't want to slow the process.

I have a whisper 30 with a bio bag & black media in the filter. Any suggestions?

Well that was a pretty pointless post wasn't it.
Look i'm not a 100% sure but it sounds like to me that its an algae bloom, free floating algae and i like you can get something to put in the water from your LFS hope this helps.
