Fish To Clean Substrate???
Hello – I have a question regarding some basic livestock that are best suited to keep the fine crushed aragonite clean from algae growth and general debris. My tank is 90 gallons with approx 80 lbs of live rock – it is stocked quite lightly, due to the amount of space I provide for a LARGE blue hippo tang that I purchased about 18 months ago and is now huge. That fish is the showpiece of the tank and fully deserves the space. The other fish are 1 large and 1 medium sized percula clown, 1 large (as large as it can be) pink Pseudochromis, and a medium sized goby. The goby was purchased after I was given advice from the local retailer that it would “clean” the substrate in the tank. It never happens. The fish has stayed under a rock for about a year and comes out everyday when I feed. After the food has gone… back under the rock. Right now, the water quality is pretty good – pH 8.3, 0 ppm am
