    does anyone have any experience with sea hares? 
    i was thinking about putting one in my tank to get rid of some of the algae
    since most of you dont know, i had a huge algae outbreak in my tank recently and the algae just keeps growing  and after about a bizzilion water changes... its still growing..

    I had a large Sea Hare before it rocked at the amount of algae it ate. I had 2 dwarf ones but my peppermint shrimp liked the flavor of them and they didn't get a chance to do anything.
