Image 2 — Algae on over sand

Algae on over sand

A novice here, just setup my first planted tank, no CO2, ledstar Aqs light at 50 % intensity, cannister filter, Ada amazonia. Did dark start method for 3 weeks starting from April 1st. After planting added some shrimp only. Did 20% water change weekly

Till now I had no algae issue. But for the past 4 days I am seeing this green algae coating on top of sand area. No other place in the tank have this issue. Needed some advice. Thanks in advance
