No
If I did not test my water...
  1. ...I recognize that I will likely be asked to do a test, and that water tests are critical for solving freshwater health problems.
Do you do water changes?
Yes
If I do not change my water...
  1. ...I recognize that I will likely be recommended to do a water change, and water changes are critical for preventing future freshwater health problems.

My magnet glass cleaner will not clean it.
 
green spot algae. scrape it off with regular magic eraser. It's caused by too much light and nutrients from waste/food particles.
Agree
It is a normal part of almost all aquarists weekly maintenance.
I use a razor blade for the tough stuff, but if I keep up and not allow it to get a foothold, one of the typical algae magnets work pretty good.
