Ok as you can probably tell im new to this... My tank has been up 2 weeks and now i am starting to see algae in places... Here is some on the LS... Is this a good sign??? Bad sign??? and should I be worried?? Basically... What the heck is it??? LOL

I don't have a reef tank yet but it looks like diatoms, a natural and expected part of a new tank cycling. It's probably normal. If it bothers you, vaccuum it out.

Looks like youre starting the Diatom bloom. Normal occurence during the cycle. Dont fret about it. It'll clear up in a few days....there's no need to vacuum it out.
