![]() red turf algae (it really is, it's just a bit out of control!)... I had a foxface that cleared up a really bad case of this for me in a matter of a few days. They love the stuff. Snails won't touch it when it gets to this point in my experience (too long and tough, maybe.)Urchins will too, though, that's true.

![]() i wouldnt recommend a rabbit fish for that tank... UNLESS you find someone who is looking for a foxface and is willing to buy it off you after it takes care of your algae..
