Seems to be the most reliable fish for control. My 6 Line Wrasse did nothing. I wanted to get a Leopard Wrasse (beautiful fish) but I don't have a DSB.

You might be able to get away with a container of sand hidden in a corner of the tank. Mine only has an inch or two but no problems.

last time i had them, every square inch of my 200lbs of rock was covered, I mean you could barely even see the rock. I noticed 3 on sunday, now i've got about 200. you definately don't want them to get out of hand.

My mandarin & leopard both ate flatworms but were no match for their reproduction rate.

Maybe if I had siphoned at the same time but I ended up treating anyways.
