Karim, algae are not total sequestors. They produce slime while they are illuminated. You have to separate organic from inorganic. Algae sequestors some inorganic nutrients, but convert carbon into organic sugars. Excess production produces slime. Just like in photyosynthetic corals. The issue gets much worse then that though.
