Avoid chemicals at all costsI have a 2 gallon pico jar and getting some hair algae. The hermits have got some of it but its growing really fast. Any recommendations??
RODI water and not near a window.Avoid chemicals at all costs
Best is to remove what you can by hand and add a few snails such as turbo grazer and astrea
Is your pics near a window?
Are you using RODI water or tap water from the faucet?
thank you! I heard emerald crabs but wanted to avoid because they could eat zoas. But is that only the males? And how do you tell the difference?Maybe a female emerald crab. That would be my bet as to what to get.
Turbos can get large but slowly- astrea- are good. Cerith also stay smallRODI water and not near a window.
I have a zebra, nerite and a trochus in there right now with two dwarf hermits. Will turbos and astreas get too big for a pico?

perfect i love how they look too. Might have to order one because stores near me don't have them atm for some reason. thank you!Eh crabs get blamed for everything lol. Female emerald crabs are small and lack the large pinching claws that the males have. A single one should be fine.
