I turned my lights off for the first 2-3 weeks when curing my live rock, then starting with 2-3 hrs a day and gradually increase it over the next two weeks to a full lighting schedule. I had no major algae blooms and all my coralline and LR looked great when it was all done.

Also at the two week mark, I took all my LR out of the tank gave it a good swoosh in a bucket of tank water and then returned it to the main tank. This helped remove any dead stuff from the rock.

I pic of my tank after two months.
