Most fish keepers will have, at some point, an unfortunate run-in with a type of hair algae. Its a stubborn type of algae that could grow in sheets and could complete take over your tank. There aren’t many types of fish that will graze on it or any products that could get rid of it. However, True Siamese are one of the few solutions to a hair algae outbreak. True Siamese do well in most community tanks but avoid aggressive catfish such as red tail sharks. Please read our LIVESTOCK SHIPPING POLICY carefully before placing your order.
