Lawn mower blenny? They ultimately need more than hair algae but mine really tipped the scales in my battle. Now he just kisses the glass all day and I give him nori every few days. A great fish even without really needing one (sorry if it's already been mentioned.)

Sorry to hear that bro, it can be very annoying dealing with that stuff. If you want to do the lights out, you can place your frags in my dt during that dark period.

It's annoying and so frustrating. Idk if I wanna put my frags in your tank man I don't want the hair algae to go into your tank I was thinking of getting a 2.5 gallon tank with a small pump to
Circulate the water and that's it for now. I did want to start the 20 gallon project but money is tight and I'm not working everyday so less money :-(.

I'm looking to get rid of mine. If I can catch them, you're welcome to them, otherwise they're living in the sump.

No problem bro, hair algae wouldn't stand a chance in my tank because of the cuc, and the other algaes(cheato, bryopsis, red dragon breath) would kill it. I've also started treating my tank with kent m magnesium to get rid of the bryopsis, and even after the first dosing, I can see the bryopsis weakening. Let me know if you need anything.
 
I think ima gonna take my three frags of palys I have because I don't want to lose those and the gsp and that's it I the Pom Pom dies I don't mind and I think the mushrooms will be fine.
