What about some algae eating fish? Like a lawnmower blenny, or a tail spot. I have a tail spot & rainford goby who do an incredible job of keeping everything at bay, always grazing on the algea. Of course I only have a 30g currently, what did you down grade to again?

So i downgraded to a 50 and have in the last month moved up into 100g. I love all the algae grazing fish, but those lawnmower bennies get mean! I'v never had a tailspot bleny but maybe ill try one. Of corse id like to avoid the qt thing thats why I'm asking about cuc.

I think Ellis has them in stock and they are pretty cheap. Rain ford are my favorite they mostly filter the sand from my experience

Halloween Urchin if you have the room mine keeps my rocks super clean the only down fall is that they knock over corals that are not glued down.
