I hate hair algae. It took me about a year to remove them. I had some corals died because of the algae taking over them last spring. Now my tank looks much better
My yellow tang use to eat a lot, but he doesn't like the long ones
Some advice:
-Buy a
skimmer that's suppose to be about three times the size of your tank.
-Buy turbo snails
-Do weekly water changes
-Remove them by hand weekly when you do water changes
-Buy a football sized cheato and throw it in your
sump. It helps prevent it from growing.
