Well I’ve got the king of turbos in these zebras (like 50% bigger then Mexicans) but they don’t stick to the rock. More hermits?

Though I hate your asterina suggestion I could put the rock in a box with a snail… like you do with my old shrimp.

You don't want to let that turf spread ,manually clean it off in a separate bucket ,and keep putting snails on it

If that's thick turf algae you need cuc with strong chompers. A Tux urchin would be borderline effective. A pincushion or spiny migh clean it off. Best bet would be remove rock and manually remove all of it.
