Totally normal start of the "ugly stages"..
I see diatoms for sure and some green film algae starting..

The ugly stages are typically diatoms then green hair/film algae then even cyanobacteria.. Usually in that order..

And as long as you maintain the tank properly they will all pass with time and should be accepted as normal and tolerated..
