After some hunting around I found this post on RC:

Mexican Turbo Snails will make short work of that stuff.. (just make sure they are the Mexican variety as the others most likely wont touch it)

what about a foxface? In the RC thread some dude said he had a foxface that munched any kind of algae to no end. I plan to get a foxface anyways so that's why i ask.

I have a Foxface in the tank now and he does not touch the stuff. He eats lots of other algaes but not the red cotton.

Unfortunately, they'll also sometimes eat your corals!

I have called J&L, OA and other LFS here and they all say the Turbo Snails they carry are not the variety that will eat this stuff. Does anybody know where I can get them here? Failing that, where else could I get them?

Thanks,
Scott.
