He is only in high school so I get it. Been there done that, lol.You disagree that I said that they work well? If you can get one not to waste away or disappear, they are awesome and hardy. Most die quickly and some people never see them again after they put them in their tanks.
If your algae is short like your build thread astrea snails at 1 per every 2 gallons is a good start, imo.So how many snails is a reasonable amount?
I use both but astreas have worked better for me.Are Mexican Turbos any better?

You’re right. Where I come from, death isn’t a problem. They have a 40 gallon filled with enormous sea hares, and I haven’t heard of any dying. I’ve rented the same one twice myself and I still see it in the tank when I stop by. And I’m not sure about people not seeing them in the tank. When sea hares die they secrete some kind of toxic substance that can wipe out a tank. If they passed away, you would know.You disagree that I said that they work well?

Haha same. My urchin just knocks stuff over. Trochus snails are great too.Turbos are the best in my opinion my urchin is lazy lol
Nice. Yellow tangs are pretty great algae eaters too, and they look fantastic. Be careful with algae Blennys, in my smaller sized aquarium they haven’t done well. Make sure you have big enough and enough caves/holes for him to live in or else he’ll never thriveAfter going to my lfs, both don’t have any snails or small urchins.
I got a lawnmower blenny in qt now, and possibly a small foxface this upcoming week.
I've had great luck with them. Added 4 to a 40G display that was overrun before. They mowed it all down in a little over a week. Was crazy!Are Mexican Turbos any better?

It all depends. Tangs are very territorial so it would be wise to add the tang after the Foxface. I do not know much about foxfaces, but I have not heard of aggression towards other species. It also depends on how small the tang is. If it is one of the tiny captive bred yellow tangs, then the foxface may react differentlyCan a very small tang and foxface be together?
Do you have an exact size of either fish or a picture?Specifically a small sailfin tang
