The intent of the Sea Hare is just to mow down most of the big stuff that the rest of the clean up crew won't touch. Hobbyists should know they are not long lived even in the wild and need a lot of algae to survive. If you buy a big one, it is probably not going to live very long.

I just wanted to give the Vibrant a little help, not to add a permanent member to the clean-up crew. Hopefully I'll get to return the Sea Hare to the LFS. We'll see.
