Phosphate removing macro?

Is there certain types of macro that remove phosphate better then other types or do they all basically just remove nitrates?
Phosphate removing media is so expensive I'm hoping for a cheaper way. Any thoughts?

Hi Kinerson,
I have never seen any studies showing phosphate concentrations among different species of algaes. I think your best bet would be to find one that grows the best in your tank and stick with that. Chaeto seems to do well in a wide range of conditions.
