Kinda looks like bubble algae, but not 100%. Its almost as if it looks like the bubbles were crushed and are now deformed. Anyways if it is, an emerald crab should be able to help clear it up.

So at least good treats. What will eat it? Have a algae blenny, emeralds, and snails nothing will eat it.

Hermits normally destroy it

Guess not in my case left them off my list bc I have abt 10 and none touch it. Would an urchin help maintain?

Wouldn’t be able to tell you, I know about the hermits as I was trying to grow some in my fuge and they just kept on eating it. They weren’t the fancy blue or red legs just the standard brown ones, they seem to eat more variety of algae’s.

How old is the tank? Bet a foxface or tang would destroy it.

How big is your tank. You could probably get More than ten. Most of the time the rule is 1 hermit for every 1 to 2 gallons

RSR250 does that rule of thumb include snails as well?

Tanks a year old and thinking too small for either those fish.

Yeah it includes snails but its a little more flexible IMO
