Medium sized sea hare end of story. I had a descent issue with gha, it cleaned the entire tank in a day and a half 75 gallons. Eating machines. Only thing is when he's done you need a new home for him or to feed him or hell starve and you don't want him to die in your tank

I take corals and rocks out of the tank and spray peroxide on the spots and let it sit for 5 min. Then I put it back in the water without rinsing. Don't do a lot this way though. Within hrs you can see it turn white and die off. If it is LPS or SPS just be careful not to get it on the tissue. If it is a zoe I have gotten it on them with no ill effect.

I have never had any issues even with sps. I have left them out for an hr with no issue when I forgot them. Not saying you should do this. Just keep some tank water handy and put a few drops directly on the coral if you are worried.

Mine moved around and over never knocked even one price out of place. Crabs on the other hand little f'ers they are have but not recently.
