What if we genetically modified the algae to be impossible to kill and survive in extreme conditions. Like the algae equivalent of kudzu.

Now coming to everyone soon: algae world! All algae all the time! Covered in slime? That's worth a dime! There is no escaping it, not even a bit.

It'll be fine.

If it gets out of hand we'll just engineer an equally hardy and aggressive rotifer to kill all the algae.
