I actually had a sea hare and he could not keep up with the growth, so I am doubting a little goby could do the job. Thanks, though. I have some interest so looks like the fishes are going for a road trip.

Even if you use chemicals to destroy the algae, you need to look at why it became such a problem.
I am thinking even after dosing the tank, destroying the algae and then getting a mantis, the algae most likely will return... There is a cause/effect, what is the cause? That is what you/us need to figure out. Could you detail your system and hardware for us.

Fish are now pending. I am holding onto them for a week or two for a member. If this person decides not to take them I will let you know.
globaldesigns, we do not have time for the reef right now - personal issues going on. Might end up selling everything - not sure yet. First we are getting rid of the fish, then the corals, and then we will see where we are at at that point. Thanks for your offer of help, though!

I have to take these fishes off the market. Significant other freaked out when I told him I was going to sell them. He promised to get back on the tank maintenance, and I probably should have checked with him first. Pretty embarrassed here - sorry for wasting your valuable time.
