Interesting. Do you think it would make sense to get one of each or just try to go with several females?

 

[kschweer]

I would do all females if I had to choose. From what others have reported the females are less aggressive.

Magnificent foxface worked for me. It cleared all of the bubble algae out in a couple weeks.

I've been told that from another reefer too. I'd love to get one, but my tank is one 57 gallons. Don't they need a bigger tank?

If you plan to upgrade you could get a smaller one. I'm going from the same size tank to a 120.

I do plan to upgrade to a 200 in 2 years. Do they grow quickly?

I think I'll try the emerald crabs first. If the don't work I'll see if Vivid Aquariums can get a small one for me. Do you know if the one spot foxface eats them as well? They don't get as big.

 

[gerards_reef]

Not sure on the one spot. Mine has grown some since I got him like four months ago. But it's not substantial growth. He is just slightly larger than the flame fin tang I have.

Will do after my birthday corals arrive on Wednesday. How do you like the Radions now that they are working.

Have you thought about a sea urchin to help with the algae. I had a major outbreak in my 15 AIO tank. I posted a thread got some suggestions which ensued a trip to my LFS. Sea Urchin has been in my tank 2 days and it is like a lawn mower!

That's great to hear. I made my own rail kit using aluminum screen frame. You can get it at almost any hardware store. I have photos of my in the beginning of this tread.

Cool!

Since I had such a good experience with Ecotech I decided to stay loyal to them and buy their stuff[emoji3]
