Hello,
Is running :

too much filtration ?

tank is a 75g and will have about 8 fish. With rock and sand and some bio media in the sump.

All but the algae reactor. I would wait 2-3weeks...maybe even the 1st.month before starting that and growing algae. Im guessing your algae population will grow and die off the leftover nutrients...
It will be your last line of defense imo other words.
