I do feel it limits certain types of algae but I still get film algae on the glass. I clean it every 4-5 days. Might buildup faster without the scrubber, but I don’t know. I’ve been using the scrubber for 10 years, so I really don’t know what my tanks glass would be like without one.

Appreciate it ...this would be my main reason to use one as I don't have much other algae.

I still have to clean the glass about the same as my tank that does not have a scrubber. One plus is I have a never ending supply of algae for my tangs so no need to buy nori
