Wrasses, pipefish, cryptic fish are best at killing ampipods..

Some say they just eat the algae/debris/detrius off the zoos, but when you actually see them decimate COLONIES ( SEVERAL new healthy ) thats a different story... I now run a wrasse tank and no more ampipod problems.. they're population is now small where they can eat off the left overs and not outcompete each other and feel the need to turn to new food sources..
