I would also add some bacteria to the tank. It will help with the algae blooms. Something like Dr. Tim's one and only nitrifying bacteria

Buy some big Mexican turbo snails. I bought ten for my tank and they cleaned all rocks of algae after cycling within a week. Those things devoured the stuff.

Never tried Dr. Tims, but Prodibio is the one that gets my money!
