Spirorbis has taken over my tank. These little critters cover my back glass such that it looks like a starry night. I have no obvious downside to these guys, except that they are growing in numbers and covering everything, and I fear could pose a bigger problem down the road. Is there a good way to keep them in check, like a natural predator that is otherwise reef-safe?

What do you have in there and what are your future plans for fish stocking?

Hippo tang, ocellaris, naso, mandarin, eiblii angel, yellow wrasse, vlamingii. I don't have any definitive plans for future, but most likely in realm of tangs or gobies. Is anything known to eat them? I don't want to use any treatments that could take out something like feather dusters. I was hoping that turbo snails would do the trick, but they have not.
