IMHO: Don't use chemicals to kill algae!!!

That causes dinos to win more.

It's a war between dino ecosystem and normal ecosystem. The 'normal' ecosystem is based on phytoplankton and algae as the basis for life. All other biofauna build up from there.

If you break the base, dinos will win.

You want a normal level of controlled algae... Exported with an ATS or macroalgae refugium.
