Hello, everyone.

I was just wondering if any of you have sea hares and if so, are they good at getting rid of hair algae? Due to the way my apartment is set up I can't really keep my tank from sunlight, even indirectly, without keeping the blinds shut(which I would rather not due with seasonal depression and sunbathing cats). My lawn mower blenny is a slacker and is more keen to eat the brine shrimp for my sea horses than to eat the vast amount of hair algae that is growing. Are sea hares a good solution?
 
It will eat all the hair then starve unless you have a big big tank
 
I had one for 2.5 years, it died of old age last week. It will eat all of the hair algae. Then you need to feed it nori sheets to make it happy. i fed mine 1 sheet a day. Miss that guy:(
