I can only think that possibly your filter died during the move and your
nitrifying bacteria has not had a chance to build up a sufficient population
yet. You probably have alot of ammonium floating around the water column.
Add more plants if you can. Definitely do BIG (50-70%) water changes once or
better yet twice a week. It will calm down, you just have to be patient.
Whatever you do don't add any algaecides to the mess. If you have access to
a diatom filter use it, or micronized filter cartridges will remove some of
the GW algae. Otherwise just keep up on the WC'S and be patient!!!
Good luck.
