unless you already have livestock in the tank i wouldnt even do a water change until the cycle is complete......let things take its course.
if you feel obligated to do one, then only do a small one...Ie. 3-4 gallons.
The rock you got from your LFS is cured to the point where there looks to be no life on it.....not really what you want.. id say the rock that you have in the tank looks good.
Once you dont have NITRITES anymore and only have NITRATES, i would do a water change and add a CUC....for the Green hair algea i see in the pics i would reccommend some scarlet reef hermits.....they really are only active at night, but they tear that stuff up.
