I heard the Kole tank is the king of hair algae. I have an algae blenny that was mean for the first few days untill he establish a territory.
Not to hijack but I have a corner 100 gal that I have avoided puting a tang in because of space. What do you guys and gals think about that. I was considering a hippo, chevron, kole, or Yellow. Just one not all.
