As far as I know, Nick. The white doesn't actually do anything except aesthetics. Corals need the blues. If you ran a reef with just whites, everything would die!
I would attribute your algae to diatoms, which is a normal progression of a cycle during the new-tank-syndrome phase. I'm going to assume your tank is pretty young?
