Looks like the Sea Hare I picked up this weekend is going to finish ridding my tank of hair algae by the end of this week. This sucker is a proven hair algae eater as I just watched him take out most of the hair algae in just a couple days. I'm already attached to it and don't want to see it waste away from starvation. I'd rather he make his rounds through people here on this board that are in need of its services.
So here's the deal, its yours as long as you can provide it with proper care. When it has cleaned your tank, pass him on to another reefer in need. From what I read you gotta take your time in acclimating these guys into your tank. Drip method or what I did was slowly pour some of my tank water into the bag over a 1.5 hour period. Takes time but I just wanna make sure someone does'nt just drop it into thier tank without the proper measures. I'm also hoping that if my hair algae returns, I'll have a shot a getting it back. Hopefully that won't be the case with the new RODI unit I just purchased. Keep in mind its not the prettiest thing in the world. Looks like something that would come out of Rosie O'Donnells pooper. It's fairly large at about 6"-7".
Pickup would be this Sat morning in Redondo Beach. I'd like to give it a name so that I can track its movement on the board. Any suggestions?
PM me with any questions. It's kinda like an adoption so if you wanna post pics if its possible new home that would be great.
