how to remove hair algae from macros

[javisaman]

Do you get rid of hair algae that attaches to macro. For instance I have flame algae with branches that have some hair algae growing on it. I heard that dwarf ceriths will crawl up macros and eat the algae.

I have the same problem with some Red Grape Caulerpa and I'd like to know as well. Anyway... Free Bump

I'd say you probably have to stick manual removal. I pluck any larger tufts out that I see growing. If your small snails aren't doing much (usually have very little impact) anything larger that would plow through hair algae would be most content blowing through your macros as well.

Try using a turkey baster and blow it off. Works for me.
