Red turf what gets rid of it.
 

I see so many tanks with really nice rocks, yet I look at mine and I have the ugliest rock and still red frigging turf algae. What is it from I still don't know.

any help would be greatly appreciated

My little urchin eats everything off the rocks, unfortunatley this includes all of my coraline as well. Do you have one in your tank already?

I got the same problem, my lawnmore blenny eats some im trying rowaphos and trying not to overfeed plus regular water changes, interested in seeing what others do for it too.

I have the same problem,awhile ago bought a long spine urchin,cleaned off my turbo snails and is slowly starting on the rock,boiling water and a syringe kills it to,was doing that until I bought the urchin.

nope may have to get some then.

i got a long spined about a week ago and have seen the drastic change. He really does a good job at keeping the tank clean. My only problem is that i have two golden sleeper headed gobies that kick up the sand all the time..the debris gets trapped under the sand and then forms cyano and other algea's. Anyhow..good luck

Mexican turbo snails in particular for red turf algae, and then in particular this urchin:

"Green Spined Pincushion Urchin (Salmacis sphaeroides)"

I have had two of these for the better part of the last 5 years or so and they have been hands-down the best rock cleaning service out of any grazer I've ever had. I've tried several other urchin species, none comes close to these guys. The caveat is that they're quite hard to obtain for some reason, at least around here.

Mine's a pincushion urchin but I'm not sure what type. The spines are all purple plus all the shell pieces and halimeda it carries everywhere he goes!

you have a pic
