That is great that your goby and pistol shrimp teamed up so quickly. It must be great watching the two together.
As long as you keep consistent with the water changes and carbon, and ensure that your parameters are all in check then the algae should diminish in due time.
As for the salt water harming the septic system, I think it should be ok. I'm on a city connection so I can't tell you with for sure certainity but I don't think you should have any problems. I usually drain my used water into the yard.
Just in case you ever decide to culture micro algae, never pour a Nanochloropsus culture down the drain, as it can live in both freshwater and saltwater and could possibly contaminate local waterways.
