Is algae really that awful? I know I like having clean rocks, sand, and glass, but is it in issue if it's on the back and side of my tank? It's against the wall on two sides so I have a black background on the back and one side. So is there an issue with it being covered in algae on the back? Not hair algae, just a greenish layer. I scrub it off pretty often but what's a downside to letting it take over the glass? Doesn't algae consume excess nutrients in the water? I know the King of DIY keeps it in his 2000g because he likes it, but downsides in a reef?
No need for hate, just a question. It's all hypothetical so my tank is in no danger.
