I'm not sure if that would work.. it looks like it has several media chambers (charcoal etch) . If we use to vacuum out the algae, would we Ned to empty and clean those chambers each time? When we did a large tank clean with the magnum it was easy to remove the single filter and replace with s new one while we cleaned the first. I suspect we will be cleaning it daily for the next few days until its clean again
we need more mechanical filtration- we use a filter sock on our old tank but this one doesn't have a sump or anywhere to put one.
