If you have low nitrates and PO4, probably not. For some reason it seems to love the eggcrate. The racks in my main tank didn't come back after I scrubbed them, but the others have. You might consider buying PVC eggcrate instead of the styrene variety. Its about twice as much but people have less algae issues with it. Just an idea though....
