Lots of Different Algae's going on here...

I can see some Bryopsis, Green Hair, Bubble (really small) and some Caulerpa (I think, very small green polyp looking plant) all growing in my cycling tank. Along with some slime like type algae that I'm not sure what it is. I'm 2 weeks into my cycle right now, although the Ammonia spike may have already happened, since the rock was mostly cycled if not completely.

So, what should I do? Kill the lights for a few days? Turkey Baste everything up that I can? Get more flow in the tank? Try to remove anything manually? All of the above...
