Picture 1 shows many diatoms. It is so dense I can’t determine what else. The last picture, I think, shows a type of diatom I have never seen.

Very typical for a new aquarium. General advice would be to add a CUC and be patient, it will pass.

Thank you! What is CUC?

Clean up crew: snails and crabs. Do a search for what is recommended for different size and style aquariums. There is also a lot of good advice about early setup and the resulting "uglies".
