Why are you struggling with GHA?
Are you running any bio-cubes bud?
& GFO?
I have found that lawnmower blennies are great at eating the micro algaes, but doesnt really want to get to the GHA.
Its a shame your so far away from me. If i let my seahare loose in that tank you will forget you ever had algae... He is a lawn mowing beast.
Sorry for asking, but what size is your tank? (seems to have missed the dimensions somewhere)

Not running bio cubes just yet that's why I'm looking for some. GFO? Well I hope the blenny chows down the GHA but I them anyway. Mmm forgot about the seahare, will see if I can find one or borrow one for a week or 2.
The dimensions are 700lx600wx500h the water level sits about 480 so I have to be careful with flow or it will spill over.

Some pics of the blenny in his new home.
With good husbandry, some ATI Phosban Stop, and manually pulling most of it out....you can get is sorted...blenny wont be able to cope with all of that....
You can also take some of the rocks you can remove from the tank and apply some HydrogenPeroxide 3% solution to it....will kill algae off...
I love blennies, such characters!
Ja they have awesome personalities but would like to get a bicolour blenny as well but not sure if they'll get along. I had a bicolour blenny but it's now in @Nemiziz_za pool, lol he thought he lost it but it was hiding in the rock so I told him to keep it as it would be a bitch to catch it in that big pool.
Some pics of the blenny.

Ok so this tank is still empty got to have it filled before @dallasg fills his but it's not a race but want my tank wet before his. Anyway I want to go planted with loads of macro but not sure what I want to keep ponies, pipefish or crustie only tank maybe a cephlapod tank? Not sure what I really want though.

Just get it wet already - decisions can come later
You'll have the LS in before me but will be saltwater in the tank before the weekend, which we both know I have the advantage as you work late most of the time
So true & get the cycle going Thanks fluffyJust get it wet already - decisions can come later
So we're moving the filth over to your thread instead, I see
Just wet it already!
Soon buddy soon
