Thanks -- The tank has macro but it's also dealing with an explosion of hair algae. Back in it goes!Oxynoe sp. sacoglossan slug - unless you have a macroalgae tank, these are good guys (algae eaters). Elysia spp. are more common, so I haven't looked into the Oxynoe genus much yet. There are a few different species it could be from what I can see, but none of them should be harmful.
Again, thanks so much! I've been using it as a grow out tank for algae and it would explain why the Caulerpa is "disappearing>"So, looking at their diet a bit more, these guys seem to only eat Caulerpa spp.
Assuming yours is a hitchhiker from around Florida, I'd guess the most likely species you could use for feeding it would be Caulerpa cupressoides, but some other good candidates for trying to feed it would be C. racemosa, C. paspasloides, and C. sertularioides.
Thanks. This is a grow out tank for macro (10G) and I'm also using it to isolate one fish who is an a%&#)@&. It is by a window, but all of the parameters are pretty consistent: Ph was 8.2 when I checked today and nitrate 40 ppm. I just saw this guy on the glass and wanted to make sure it wasn't something harmful.Agree on snail and you will need a few others depending on severity of Algae
Any pics of tank under white lighting ?
Also what is your current phosphate and nitrate levels?
Are you using RODI water or tap water from faucet ?
Is tank at or near a window?
Yep, @ISpeakForTheSeas is the best!!!^^^^now that's a tag and answer!
