Ty, I'm still trying to balance out algae but I recently added 2 tuxedo urchins. They have removed more algae in the past 2 days than all the snails I've had combined in the past 6months.

Tuxedos and sea hares are excellent algae eaters. Much more effective at controlling hair algae than most other clean up crew species. Welcome to Canreef BTW.

They have been clear cutting all the algae, I am going to take pictures so I have it documented but you'd think I pulled the rock out and scrubbed it clean. The even left behind my red coraline algae
