Have you back washed your filter? You may be shocked at the filth that will come flying out by watching your sight glass. These initial start ups can get a filter really mucked up fast with dead algae.

Last bloom I had made me have to backwash once an hour for like 8 hours and then less and less as the muck cleared up. Three days later and my water was pristine.
