Yea they are cheap and very effective. A melenarus is also very effective at hunting bugs.

Hmm, what a good way to get rid of them? What fish should I be looking at getting? Wrasse of some sort? A sixlined wrasse might be to aggressive I think. Suggestions?

My Melanurus ate them all, but also wiped out my blue-legged hermits and mini brittle stars
All I can suggest is Google
