Hello and apologies if this is the wrong section!
I have been cycling my 125l planted tank for about 12 days now (going for a silent cycle). Everything has seemed to go well so far, with an early biofilm bloom which has mostly dissipated. However, one of my pieces of driftwood on the left began to develop a fuzzy algae at the same time. While the biofilm has dissipated, this brown fuzz has completely overtaken that piece of driftwood (but only that piece, it seems). today however, i've noticed a slight 'dusting' of brown fuzz across the leaves of some of the plants (java fern, anubias, in particular). I'm completely inexperienced when it comes to this, so any suggestion as to the threat level or possible solutions would be greatly appreciated! I've included several images, but i apologise if they are not the best quality, as it is difficult to get a clear photo!
{wide shot of the tank for context)
(the algae taking over the driftwood i mentioned)
(the 'biofilm' i mentioned (very little left))
(the dots of algae 'dust' on the plants i mentioned. Very hard to get a good photo of these, i apologise.)
Any advice would be greatly apprecaited.
