Anyone have fuzzy chitons? Thoughts?

Got some nuisance algae to say the least see other post on green turf like algae. Was going to try out some new inverts to see if anything would eat it. Fuzzy chitons are on the list, so I wanted to see what peoples experience with them has been. Pro and con of course. thanks.

I added 5 fuzzy chitons in a 210 a few months ago. 3 didn't make it past a week. The other two seem to do a good job of keeping their rock clean. They each have an area they cover of around a square foot. I have never seen either venture into a different area.

Hmm. So I was thinking of adding 4 to my 90. Wonder if I should add more.

So I got 8 on the way, hope they do their job.

How did the Chitons work out for you?

They seem to be doing a pretty good job so far. Noticed some nice clean spots that were covered with algae before. I'm assuming I have them to thank for mowing i
