My tank has become infested with grape calurpa. Never added it to my sump so i am not sure where it came from. How can i get rid of it besides manual removal and wasting my whole saturday?

Go to Bluezoo.com or live aquaria.com and order a scribbled Rabbitfish. Watch your problem dissappear! You can also pull it off slowly if there is that much, and let the rabbitfish clean up any re-growth. Best fish ever for green pests!

+1 on the rabbitfish. I tried pulling it off and it was a pain in the #$$.

Is this for your 55? If so, the fish suggested won't fit.

Yes its for my 55. After researching, I saw that the said fish is too big for my tank.:angryfire: I guess I will be starting over. Sometimes this hobby sucks! Between the calurpa, brysopsis, and majonoes, i will never buy live rock ever again! Lesson learned!

+1 Put a small one in my 34g Solana and he decimated a Calurpa problem in a weeks time.
Just get a small one ~2" he'll probably out grow the tank in a year or so and then just sell/trade him away
