Is it RED or just Brown?

Probably just diatoms which are VERY normal in a new tank especially right after the cycle.

yeah, nate, no worries. there's plenty more to come in a new tank. your CUC will help out huge. Keep params between the uprights and keep up on maintenance. It'll work it's self out!
