    lol. I corrected it but you already answered. I realized it couldn't be 90g, because of the size of that overflow box and the dimensions are too "long". :p The scapes in their tanks do look pretty similar.

    Algae is most likely diatoms. Normal part of a cycle. Turn off you lights until the cycle finishes to keep the algae to a minimum. Once ammonia and nitrite get to zero you can tuen on the lights and start adding your clean up crew and 1 fish every 2 or 3 weeks as long as your ammonia and nitrite are zero.
