Your tank will likely go through various types of algae blooms before it stablizes. Eventually the more complex life forms take over but it doesn't happen over night. Hang in there, it will get better. IMO you should put a few fish in to help it cycle more naturally. Be careful what you start with though, the fish that turn out to be the one's you don't want later always seem to be the hardest ones to catch.

Hermit crabs, cleaner shrimp, snails and other scavangers and algae eaters. Conches and many types of gobies are good for turning the sand and keeping it clean.
