Hello all. I have a 50 gallon ZooMed LowBoy frag tank. What would be the best fish for algae control of the plugs and my racks? Currently i only have 1 Springer Damsel onside the tank. Thanks.
 
A smaller Bristletooth Tang would be the best IMO, or a One Spot Foxface. Yellow Eye Kole, Tomini, White Tail, Squaretail. Many Lawnmower Blennies don’t take well to captive fare, at least from what I’ve heard.
 
Thanks for the input guys! Does anyone normally run a CUC in the frag tanks?
