Blue Spotted Sea Hare

[Zoous]

I recently purchased a blue spotted see hair to deal with my hare algae. Can anyone confirm they do. If not, what type of see hare will?

Blue spotted Elysia

p.s. You transposed hair/hare

p.s.s. Research feeding requirements prior to purchase

 

[Deanos]

What type of hair algae do you have?

 

[Zoous]

I have one,eats it when he feels like it.Not taking chances with a blenny either,they knock everything down.That pic is a nudi,not the hare I have.

they do eat hair algae zoous, give it some time. They won't mow it down that quick nor will they eat all of it. U'll be surprised that they leave patches so it grows out for more feeding =0) The blue spotted is picky on the type of algae it eats though.

Anyways thats a quick summary on what i researched. But always read up on the species before you buy it. You have to read up with things like sea hares and nudi's since they can and will pollute your tank if they die due to feeding requirements.

Right now he's on the glass,He had them listed as 29.99 but I get the discount.They are picky as they pointed out.He'll sometimes hang around the hair algae to eat it then move on.
