Algae Attack Pack Basic 30 Gallon
Algae Attack Packs are designed to establish a natural means of controlling algae growth, along with maintaining crystal-clear water in marine aquariums. The number of cleaners in each package is based on our years of experience, and is tailored to provide enough cleaning power for the size of aquarium that you are maintaining.
Algae Attack Pack is a formidable offense that will put algae on the run. Filamentous (hair algae) is mowed down by the hermit crabs, and film algae is wiped away by the snails. All of the members of this pack will also attack various microalgae (including cyanobacteria) that may be found in the aquarium.
Pack includes:
| Item | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Dwarf Red Tip Hermit Crab | 25 |
| Margarita Snails | 5 |
| Cerith Snails | 5 |

Lisa Skinner –
The algae in my 30-gallon tank has significantly reduced since adding the Algae Attack Pack. The hermit crabs and snails are active and seem to be eating the algae regularly. No need for chemical treatments anymore.
Irene Baker –
I noticed a noticeable drop in hair algae after introducing the pack. The snails are cleaning the glass and rocks well. A few snails have moved to the substrate, but they’re still active.
Eric Peake –
Great product for natural algae control. The hermit crabs are curious and keep moving around, and the snails are constantly grazing on film algae. My tank looks much clearer now.

The pack arrived on time and the animals are alive. I saw some algae reduction, but it’s not as fast as I hoped. Might need to supplement with occasional maintenance.
