You could also try building a scrubber..Same idea as cheato..clean the screen once a week and harvest all the excess ..They work great,its the only filtration i use..I also have a messy bunch of eaters

Never heard of it what's a scrubber? Cheato algae works good for me but I always want to learn something new

When my nitrates were up I was doing 15% water changes every 3rd day until they dropped to 10ppm then I started Vodka dosing and got my nitrates to 2ppm.
