i bought two turbos and two lettuce "nudi's" recently to fight my hair algae, and the lettuce nudi's climbed onto the hair algae and laid eggs, then dissapeared.
the turbos ate some algae and got full and stopped moving.
... not the greatest.
my late emerald grab used to eat hair/bubble like mad. but once he died the hair algae kept coming (he died because the tank was cleaned out by him). He started eating gobies, armor of gods, acropora colonies, and such, but eventually i had to feed algae tablets twice daily to him. eventually he didn't get enough food (i left for long vacations) and died.
sad, but kind of good since I might be able to keep gobies now and zoos.
I was going to try an urchin, but found out that they may scratch acrylic with their mouths =(
manually pulling, running dual oversized skimmers, isn't helping.
i have about 80x turnover in the tank.
one day I'll figure it out...
