Lettuce Nudibranch

[siloxane]

Anyone have any experience using Lettuce Nudibranches to control hair algae?

I've probably bought over a dozen of them from different sources over the years. Personally, I've never been able to keep one for more than a few weeks.

I have used them in the past and like Josh they don't seem to last, also they do not fare too well in high flow and end up in the sump. I would go with seahare anyday. The only problem you will have with seahares is that as soon as the algae is gone then they will starve.
