Help with water

My sandbed has a randomly turned brown with my glass turning brown with algae and my sump since my 20% WC has turned completely brown and muggy.

My phosphate is .25 but nitrate 0.. Is this the cause?

phosphates.. could come from the water or the food you feed.
How old is the tank?
Lighting schedule/type?
