Who owns a sea hare?

Same. Mine doesn’t touch it. This is at its peak I have since 75% tamed it with a bit with manual labor and fluconazole. Dude would just slide right over it. You can see him there… not eating it. Even with nutrients under control it’s relentless.

If I would give it 3-4 days of not scrubbing/sucking it out the algae would come back something fierce. Tried natural remedies and finally gave in to the fluconazole so far around a week in it’s the best I’ve gotten the tank to look in months. If all the rock weren’t glued together I would take them out and h2o2 them
Mine also slid over the nori I put in front of it. I tried green and red nori, and even Romain lettuce.

I thought the first one was defective, so I bought another. Neither are eating anything.

I spoke to eatbreakfast, and he told me bullet gobies would work for hair algae, so I ordered one.
 
I only see mine at night after lights out. He’s huge! So I can’t figure out how he hides so well. Best algae eater by far.
 
Does anyone in this forum keep a sea hare either as a pet or as part of their CUC?
I do. I used to have two. I lost one mysteriously. When I first got them, everyone told me they are going to die, specially because they claim, my tank did not have enough growon algae to fill one-third of their body size everyday. Surprisingly, they lasted 6 weeks, maybe more .. until I lost one just a couple of days back. Have a look at the video. I still don't know what that fluid was.
The second one keeps going like Energizer Battery.
