You don't need coralline algae to have fish. Some people actually don't like it. It will come over time with lighting and certain water parameters. Good to see you being patient.

If your water is testing "fine" as you say it is. It would probably be safe to start slowely adding some livestock and CUC. Now the fun begins deciding what kind of habitat your going to create and whats compatible with what.
