Well, I’m no formal expert, but lots of experience… and it seems to me that with light and nutrients, algae will grow… I find aggressive growing terrestrial plants pull enough nutrients out of the water, that algae can’t compete… it would seem that having d to grow aquatic plants would be a big challenge to grow against easy to grow algae… I would suspect in they use the same nutrients, you’ll have a battle to control the algae… if you have easy to grow aquatic plants, or aquatic plants that require different nutrients, than most algae’s, your battle will be easier
