micro algea in my skilter???

[tanker newbie]

i was wondering i seen on mr saltys web site that he has a algea refugme(if thats spelt right) and i was wondering if i can put a little bit of micro algea in my skilter 400 to lower the nitrates a little(there practially 0) but i just want to see clear though the vile if u know what i mean but would it work??

Probably not.There is not enough room to have enough to make a difference in the reading. Plus what little you could put in there would quickly grow and clog the filter.Plus the water flow is WAY too fast through there.
