twinkles Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 we have the end foot of a community tank sectioned off, and since i had to change the light over it all the glass in the end has got covered in brown algae. So i put mr algae in there just in case he'd eat some - didn't expect this lol 1/2 an hour later its nearly all gone, tank looks nice again he's real picky and doesn't like sinking pellets much, i guess he does eat more algae out of his tank than i thought. Just can't believe how fast and efficiant he is, i couldn't beat that with a glass cleaner :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinkles Posted June 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 yup they have the end of the tank to themselves, they were in the big part but thought they might be more interested in each other in there all the algae is gone, every smidgen, and Algae looks even fatter than usual Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinkles Posted June 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2009 i don't think he was too pleased with being moved though, i put him back where he goes after an hour or so and he dug another big hole and picked up enough stones to 1/2 fill his house. I briefly contemplated getting a little baby algae eater for the divided part, until i remembered how fast this one grew. Might just have to get another tank then i can take the divider out of this one. Any excuse :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
