algea scrubber question

not sure where this goes, but it it a "filter" so...

for all of you using algea scrubbers, do you ever "export" (clean off) any of the algea on the "scrubber"? (wall thingy)
thanks!

found it with the search function.
it seems most are scraping once a week.
i don't really have a "real" scrubber... i modified my sump a while back. now water from tank "cascades" over a demising wall in my sump (to section where chaeto is)
it seems (to me) that this wall is acting as a scrubber, as the chaeto light shines on it, it has developed quite a growth of algea on it(none of which has shown up in my tank, btw)
is this acting as a defacto algea scrubber?
thanks!
