Yes they are normal for a new tank. I have seen them as a problem for up to a month and then they just go away.
You should make sure you are not pushing too much flow through your sump/refuge (3 to 5X max) and that the discharge of the skimmer is away from the return pump. Images of your setup are always helpful too..
