Turf Algae Eater?

Any macroalgae will consume phosphate and nitrate.Reminds me a little of algae scrubbers use years ago.No harm in trying except for money and time.I'm with you,I wouldn't want to run one without a skimmer.

BTW,macroalgae and GFO(granular ferric oxide) media removes phosphate.
 
It would be easy and cheap enough to set up.If you've got the extra room for it,I'd say it'd do the job.
 
What is the best material to use to trap the algae? It looked like a screen that they used, but what is it really?
 
here is the real question. should we really trust this guy when it comes to aquariums when he has a blue regal, purple and a clown tang all in what looks like a 92 gallon corner tank?
 
I would just use the skimmer and macro algae refugiums. There are reasons that the hobby progresses and leaves things behind. Not saying that these things don't work. it is just my 2 pennies.
