Sea Hair Need to go today (Boulder)

[TurboFish]

Hey everyone , I have a sea hair that I tried to DBTC but that fell through so he is back up for sale/trade/DBTC. I really don't care which one but the catch is he has to go today. I leave for Boise tomorrow for a week and I simpy don't have enough feed for the big guy. He has survived in my tank for just over six week and I originally bought him from catfish charlie's. He ate both hair algae and bryopsis. I would love to see him go to a good home but if push comes to shove I'll trade him to a LFS if I have to. Thanks for your time!

Troy...I was talking to Evan yesterday (ShelbyJK500) and he sounded like he might be in the market for one. Text me for his contact info.

Thanks for the line. I got in touch with him but he can't make it to Boulder today(damn). Still here.....

I'm in Boulder. I don't have an algae problem but does he eat other things? What about detritus? I can hold on to him until the November meeting if that works the best.

Ugh, I only have a small amount of unwanted algae in my refugium. I don't think I'd be able to properly care for the lil guy.

What'd you end up doing Troy? Bummed I couldn't make it up there today, too much going on, day late/dollar short tomorrow.

I have one, and he eats dried algae, and has eaten all of the other macros in the tank. He also seems to like the algae on my glass. Mine is a freaking pig. He's entertaining as heck too!

Wow, mine is still in the tank but he doesn't seem to touch the chaeto our the other macros I have in there.any particular type he likes the best?

And to all those pming I'm sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet, I'm on a work trip in Boise and won't be back until Thursday. My wife was a little apprehensive about people she didn't know coming to our house with out me there.

I don't know what kind of macro it's called, but they look like the mushrooms that grow on trees, and they're bright red under actinics. Didn't think he'd eat them... But he mowed them down in a day. I'm only feeding him dried algae once to twice a week.

Sabrina called me the other day asking about him. I am pretty confident he would eat Ulva sea lettuce as almost all herbivores do (including humans in some parts of the world). She was going to stop by yesterday to grab some from me, since I have a ton of it, but I guess she got busy with school stuff and couldn't make it down. Offer still stands if she wants to pick it up later or I could drop some off next time I am in boulder, sounds like this guy needs some food pronto.

Thanks Steve! I'll let her know.
