David - Do you have a Lawnmower Blenny?

[techdiver]

I have a hair algae breakout and was thinking I could borrow him for a week. I have pulled some out by hand, but it is hard to get it all. I will have to test to see if I have a nitrate or phosphate spike.

That is what I get for taking several vacations in a short period of time.

I have one,but he is not eating hair algae,just the green algae film on the glass and flake food.You are welcome to try him.

I got a small cleanup crew from Kevin, and the snails look to be taking care of the problem. Over the years I haven't been replacing snails, so I was down to just some certiths and stomatellas.

I just bought 40 snails yesterday at memfish.I am thinking the same thing.My snails have dwindled down to 3.

My tank already looks so much better. I lost one of the two turbos, but the other one is trying to make up for it by eating enough for 2.

Turbos are great algea grazers.I put down the 17th for the sept meeting.My email is screwing up.
