Do you keep your light on? If you do, and you're adding ammonia to cycle the tank this will be a slight build up of algae.
Keep the light off during the cycle as light + ammonia = algae
You can keep your rocks in of course.

+2 to little nemo's comment - after you're finished cycling put in a snail or a pleco and they'll have that cleared up in no time
