Jewel pufferfish

[redlac]

Hi guys
Having a slight problem with green hair algae and was wondering if it was ok to keep some red legged hermit crabs also to help with cleaning. I have a 350l tank but also have a jewel pufferfish in it.

Thanks

Perhaps try a tuxedo urchin? I doubt the puffer will be able to eat that. If he does, maybe a pencil urchin would be harder to get at?

Urchins are actually a large part of many puffers' diet, so despite their protective looking spines, I would think the intelligent puffer would figure out a way to make a meal of him unfortunately

Just bought a tuxedo urchin today, Puffer hasn't found it yet, hopefully all will go well.
