In my case, nope, that defeats the purpose of using algae to extract the nutrients out of the tank, plus I don't have any fish that eat algae. My Starry blenny prefers nibbling on my hand more than algae.

I'd love to recycle a portion of my algae. Looked at the paper method of making nori, but details are sparse.

I was watching the algae go down my drain and I thought to myself, this looks like the stuff I just put in my tank.

Welcome.

It is the same, but you just need to through more away than you feed.
