My take on ATS. Yes they work and they do not strip your tank. If nutrients get to low then less algae grows. If you feed your tank frequently then you don't have to worry about levels getting to low. They help with cyano and diatoms. You can control them with amount of light and light duration. Some can be remote installed so it makes maintenance easier. I don't like anything that means I have to get under tank more than once a week, bad back. I always fed my tank at least 4 times a day and got rid of Gfo which I never liked and no carbon dosing. I did not do water changes either.
