I am astarting to get a few clumps of Hair Algae in my tank. Also have had bubble algae spreading since receiving a frag with it.

 

Have been manually removing bubble algea but some places are hard to reach. I am asking for suggestions on fish/inverts that will offer the highest chance of success

in removing both H/A and B/A? Tank is 90g RR w/ 30 sump/fuge. LPS/SPS/Shrooms with Sand Sifting goby, citron goby, small Spiny Box Fish.

 

Thanks for your suggestions.

For the HA: lawnmower blenny or sea hare. Customers have told me about their foxfaces and Cortez hermits.

For the BA: emerald crabs

If possible, a strong bristle brush and a little time Can help out. Depending on how you're setup.

sea hare works wonders on HA.

 

www.reefcleaners.org recommends emerald crabs for BA and they state: "Our crabs are guaranteed to eat bubble algae or we will refund the cost to you."
