LMAO!!!!!

Sorry.... so my friend just got a nano biocube. holds about 8 gallons of water.

Long story short she has a very serious hair algae bloom. No big deal I tell her. We moved the tank etc etc...

So she can't handle waiting to throw something in. She goes local to buy a cuc (o.k.) and comes home with a fish the "guy" said would fix it.

I look it up and it's a Harlequin Bass (Serranus tigrinus)
or a Spotted Hawkfish (Cirrhitichthys aprinus)
