Reef Tank Safe Janitors

Saturday March 28, 2009
Reef Tank Safe Janitors "Tank Janitors" are the critters (fish and invertebrates) that crawl and/or swim around the tank, cleaning up the crud (detritus, uneaten food, undesirable microalgae, etc.) that builds up in a saltwater aquarium, disrupting the biological balance and appearance. "Reef Tank Safe" janitors do it without destroying your corals and other tank mates.

More: Reef Tank Safe Hermit Crabs may be the best investment you can make for your reef tank. They clean your tank 24/7 without harming your valuable corals.

Forums: Cyano- Chuck please help I have a 500 liter tank - about 2 months running and there is a layer of purple/pink coloured algae on the rocks that is now also spreading on the sand substrate...
