Are you using DIY or pressurized? How much light do you have over the
tank? I ask because you are full of sh*t on this subject. I have
four CO2 injected tanks that are 99% algae free.

CO2 helps one thing grow in your tank and it ain't plants - it's algae

DO NOT USE CO2 - This is no troll - I've tried for one year now and it
makes black hair algae grow like mad - save yourself money and
trouble. Just don't do it.

People often blame one single factor as the cause of their tank
problems, particularly algae. It is much easier than to spend the time
tinkering around to pin point the real cause: to achieve that perfect
balance and equalibrium, and even then algae has a tendencey to sneak
back in. Algae is a fact of life in an aquarium that you can control,
minimize or just plain live with.
