Tangs will eat the algae, they love it! :-) The problem is that defeats the purpose. The Calerpa uses the Nitrate to grow, you harvest the Calerpa and therefore remove the Nitrate from the system. If, however you feed the Calerpa to the Tang, he will eat it and pass the rest through which ends up in the water again.
Make sense?
