stuff needed to be addressed

ok i have a fragged xenia. it is in 3 pieces on one small scrap rock. on that rock also is 4 zoas and 2 new-borns. this piece of scrap rock has a hair algae problem. my whole tank used to but my turbo snail surprisingly took care of that overnight. i caught the snail for the first time trying to clean the scrap rock but i took him off because i was afraid he would eat the xenia and everything else on there. will he? and is this a problem that there is hair algae all around the coral? what should i do. please address all of these issues. i have noticed sometimes people only answer one of the questions and i end up asking them later.

thanks a lot,
ryan

 

you cant see the algae in the pic but its long and moving with the current

 

im sorry but and is the very first zoa on the top of all of them the biggest one dead?

 

The Turbo snail will not eat your coral. I would put it back to help clean up the rock with the coral on it

I hope I've answered all the issues

 

Agreed. Leave the snail in there...sometimes..they even crawl on the corals...but they dont hurt them. I have a Green Star Polyps that my snails, and even red leg hermits crawl on every now and then to get algae, etc. in the area. Never does any harm.

 

ok thanks a lot guys. and is that one dead? the one i talked about above (read)?
