I am having a brissel worm invasion. Is there any wrasse that would be safe to add to my horse tank for a while, or should I just try to pick them out as I can. I have taken 5 out so far, but I can see them coming out of the rocks when I feed.
I dont want the horses to snick them or get stung.

UGH! I feel your pain. I had the big whoppers in the 18g and I believe I started a thread much the same as yours.
All I could do was reduce the risk by using a magnet suspended feeding dish. Not too many of them ventured up the glass and even less could do so without me seeing it.
How do you feed now? Dish?
I'm not sure on wrasses. I've only ever own a leopard.
Greg's gone to the fish store... lemme ask about wrasses when he gets back.

Why can't you use a trap'em.....I know it won;t catch a lot at once, BUT they do work

Thanks, I have just been turning off the flow and dumping, but am really thinking about training to a food dish. I have one, but I dont care for it, I will have to remake one I like

I have caught a few that were out in the open, but cant get the ones that stay in the rocks. I have tried the nylon trap before and didnt work well.

I made mine with a shell, some SPS skeletons, a magnet and some epoxy. I've noticed a big difference in the tanks where I use the dish verses dumping.
