Ok, not likely to be dinos, that's good. Diatoms are expected when starting up a new tank, but if you don't control nutrients from the get go you will run into further algae problems like the green hair algae you have sprouting up now.

Do you have any livestock in the tank yet? Have you tested nitrate and phosphate? If so, which test kits? Are you using any sort of nutrient control products like GFO or biopellets?
