    Manual removal,New Warner Marine Skimmer(the bomb),Increased WC's,GFO,and about 6 Emerald crabs.I don't normally like buying inverts for pests but had no other choice as I could not get to some of it. When choosing Emeralds buy the smallest ones you can find and female if possible. IME they are much more docile and less likely to go rogue. When this algae is all gone I will supplement their food with sheets of nori and formula2.;) IT WAS BAD!!!I only have a few tiny patches left.

    Did not know this, thanks.

    Nice Melanurus, Vinny. I had a female, but sold it because it kept attacking my female Mandarin. Women, lol. :p

    Looking great, Bro! Personally, I wouldn't bother with the algae around Herbie's barnacle- I think it adds a nice touch. Also quite beneficial (gobbling up all that nutritious poop. lol). :)
