I agree with the mollie. Once the lawnmower eats all the algae it will most likely die

I would go with some Scarlett Hermit Crabs. What is the algae you are trying to get rid of and are you using RO/DI?

SSShhhhh.......not so loud. My lawnmower might hear you. He's a freak of nature
Whynot just stock up on some snails and beef up your cleanup crew a little?
