If you have a reef tank with micro-algae growing on the glass, then you buy a tang to eat the micro-algae on the glass, have you diminished water quality since the tang is now eating the algae and pooping it out?
Is the micro-algae holding nutrients that would otherwise be in your water and effecting your corals?
Not sure if I am explaining this right, but I was justing thinking about hypotheticals today and could not wrap my head around which is harder on corals: micro-algae or fish poo.
Considering nutrient export.
