Hello everyone I have a new tank and I’m new to the hobby, I’ve noticed the algae start growing very quickly in my tank, mostly on these two top rocks, but a little bit everywhere else. Is this part of the “ugly stage”?
If not should I be worried about it?

also I turned the lights on 100% white just to take the picture but normally run the whites very low
