They are good untill you get over run with them, look at your tank at night, see if you have a bunch or way to many. I have been harvesting them for about 6 months, just picking them off the rocks aprox 20 to 50 a week. They can breed like rabits.

So what negative effects do you notice from them? If you have too many, you must have too much algae. Their will always be a balance in any ecosystem and having too many algae eaters when you have too much algae doesn't make any sense to me

dkcrx, are you sure you dont have flatworms? stomatella dont usually breed to the kind of numbers that would be considered pest proportions.

I have been seeing the same thing in my system for the past couple of months. Good to know that they are safe.
