At least they are easy to remove as they seemed to like to go on the glass in my tank. Too bad Trigger fish aren't reef safe. heh.
Yep, they like the glass, so pretty easy to sweep up when a outbreak occurs.

Last time I looked in overflow, it was downright scary how many were in there.

Those I really don't mind. Not going to bother any one even if they don't eat corals.

& and who knows they may be doing something beneficial.

As the "waves" of them occur over long time periods, I really do think something is feeding on the offspring. And only once in a while does the repoduction get ahead of whoever it is.
