Anyone out there tried to control algae bloom in your plant tanks
using one or several of the Daphnia species? It would seem to be a
very natural approach, as the Daphnia population would increased
quickly with increased algae bloom, and correspondingly decrease with
algae consumption.

You couldn't have many fish (except algae eaters), but then fish
aren't crucial to a planted tank.
