ok this tuff is getting on my nerves. i have 15 bluelegs, 2 tubos, 2 ceriths, 1 pepermint, and an emerald crab. the emerald at first devoured the stuff but now doesnt mess with it too much. my occelaris bite and pull at it once and awhile but dont do much damage to it. i have manually removed some of it but its a time consuming job and i can only grab a few strands at a time with my mechanical grabers. anyone got anything on these things and do you all know what i might add to take care of them. oh yeah i do use tap and a conditioner. natural light is a minimum.:help:
help lol

that figures. i have an algea thats hard to get rid of lol. so you think that a lawnmower bleeny and another crab should do it? anyone else got any ideas? i dont like reaching in with my hands into the tank. you never know what we have on our hands and then introduce something else into the tank

A lmb would probably help, they mow down just about anything. If you do get one make sure he doesn't starve with lack of thing to eat later down the line. Id introduce some nori sheets after a week or so.
Mine is a monster he cleaned about 60lbs of LR in about 3 weeks.
