Hi,
Green turf algae and red string algae on the live rock are really starting to build up. The red algae are spreading and I've tried removing it by pulling it off, but it keeps coming back. I picked up two blue-legged hermit crabs, but they are more interested in what I'm feeding the fish.
I'd like to know if anyone has had luck with a fish that munches algae for this sized tank. A fish that ate the red string algae would be great!
Someone mentioned to me that a young yellow tang would work, but I'm sure I'd have to try and find this cool fish a new home soon enough when he started to grow.
In this small 15 gal. community tank is a false percula, pajama cardinal and firefish.
Also a few nassarius snails, astrea snails, and margarita snails.
Thanks for the suggestions
Cheers
