Question???

So I am not sure what to get... I have some, well more than some alot of hair algea and not sure if I should get a sea hair or a Lettuce Nudibranch I know they both love the HA but the Lettuce Nudibranch loves the power heads as well.

Thoughts?

Have you ever seen a huge sea hare? They get really big and eat like pigs, one would probably clean your tank great and fast but then die. Lettuce nudis you would have to cover your powerheads with sponges but probably more suited, especially if you can pass if around. Never personally dealt with either though.

Your tank seems to just go in algea phases, I don't know that adding an algea eater is going to fix the issue long term, you've got tangs don't you? Make them work for their dinner. My foxface picks at the rocks all the time, maybe you should send some algea my way. J/K!

I have got 2 tnags a yellow and a kole they dont touch it and to be honest I dont remember the last time I fed my fish so they work for it.lol I am thinking of getting a fox to add also. I have had good luck with them in the past.

It is getting very old having this issue now going on 6-8 months and just want my tank back...LOL

have you changed your bulbs yet?

Those red leg hermits you wanted will be available on my next order. $1.25 ea I think.

I say sea hair or get a clown tang my loves HA lol

Yes I got new bulbs.
I will pass on the RLH
OK I might just get a hare and try it.

given any thought to making a ATS?

Algea turf scrubber.

Oh I tried one but with my setup it did not work very well

the best thing you can do is figure out what's fueling your Hair algea not put more of a load on your tank, when you come down to pick up your stuff bring some water and I'll test your Phos, I bet there high. have you thought of doing a phos reactor? I know now that since I have Vishnu's fish which I'm going to have to start thinning my stock again because my fish load has tripled since the last time you seen my tank I'm having a hell of a time controlling my phos, I even have a couple patches of HA here and there plus keeping our homes closed up so tight because of winter don't help either.
