what do you feel the when they run out of algae?

[bruce326]

I use algae wafers that they can nibble on

[bruce326]

yes, they are community fish. They just tend to their business as cleaners.

[Vojak3]

minimally 5 there should be.

[Seanomw]

Are they a peaceful fish to keep together?

[bruce326]

You should have more than just one, they are great cleaners and really small. I have about six now.

is it okay to have just one in the tank? Or do they need others with them? Cause i just have one

[shadowblader1234]

I bought one last night, they are cool little guys.

they do indeed eat brown algae. They completely cleaned mt tank of it and even witnessed them consume it. but this shouldnt be used as the only food for a varied diet is best

i dont think they eat brown algae, but they do like cucumber. did you blanch the cucmbers so that they sink?
