I'm not talking about decomposing algae. I'm talking about live algae.
What I'm saying is, you just hooked up your refugium and you toss in a giant ball of chaeto. Did your nutrient levels just go up? No. The only time I remove algae is when it's so overgrown that light won't hit all of it.
Using that theory ATS is a waste of time. I disagree. Growing algae is an excellent way of exporting nutrients. Disposing of it insures it won't re-enter the water column if the algae over grows.
