Is there something wrong with my new fuge?

[Speckled Grouper]

Just set up a 10g fuge on a 180 one week ago.
Substate is Aragonite and Mineral Mud, few small live rock and caulerpa and cheato. 2 x 65 watt lamps (Home Depot)on 24/7
Algae is now covering the glass along with lots of bubbles. Bubbles are also on the LR. Caulerpa is turning brown in some spots. Cheato is looking good.
Is this normal?

I wouldn't worry about it...it'll take a while to 'break in,' if you take my meaning. Every macro I've ever had dies off and regrows, even with regular pruning.

Peace,

Should I clean the algae off the glass and remove the brown caulerpa and the bubbles? Or just let it take its course?

You can clean the glass if you want to view through it. I think its just going through it's cycle.
