Anyone know any good Algae eater fish or inverts i can put in my saltwater set up to eat that stuff!
 
Emerald and hermit crabs, seahares, turbo, trochus, and astrea snails, starry and algae blennys, bullet gobies, and for tanks 75+g kole, tomini, and yellow tangs, 150+g most other tangs.
 
Urchins are very good as well but make sure your frags and corals are glued down or they'll go for a ride
 
What's size tank is it?
 
20 Gallon tank tht im starting with, i got a good bit of brown algae growing on glass and reef bed, so im gonna vacuum some of it with my gravel cleaner pump, then throw in a few snails? any good snails i can get that eat that stuff constantly or do ya gotta feed em certain snail food too
