What say the salts around here? Someone asked me since they are selling them at an lfs, and this person has a major league hair problem. Peaceful reef set up and after it finishes can sheets of macro be fed? How big do they get? Went surfing on the net but could not get an answer to these questions? Thanks ahead of time, Mike.
 
Keep in mind that the majority of sea hares are fairly specific eaters. Assuming that what the lfs has is really Notarchus indicus then it feeds on Caulerpa and probably doesn't care much about eating hair algae.

Thanks Leslie. I took a pic and spent a bunch time on the sea slug sight. I also saw this sucker mow down hair algae at my request at the store. Also seen him chow down on all algae but bubble. So not sure. It has the both of the "blow" holes fore and aft. I'll get a pic and post but this may be the ultimate almost all in one clean up crew.
