Here is a thought....
If phosphate gets sucked up by rock and algae thrive at the rocksurface....
Will it be benificial to close off that surface with coralline algae... and if phosphate contaminates the calcium structure, it is better to let it cover the surface at low phosphate, so it grows faster and greates a better barrier?
Maybe I want to see it, but live rock with coralline seems to have less algae as to dry rock.
