 | Hair Algae |
MDSalty  Hobbyist Posts: 99 Kudos: 115 Votes: 5 Registered: 29-Mar-2004   | I have a yellow tang in my 75 gal tank along with about a half dozen hermits and one emerald crab. I have read that as many as a hermit per gallon is best. That seems like a lot. Also, the tang doesn't seem to be too interested in the hair algae, though it is constantly grazing the live rock. Should I look for specific hermits that are bigger hair algae cosumers than other types of hermits? I plan on getting another dozen or two hermits this weekend, so I'd appreciate any more advice. Thanks. |
