Not sure how this little guy made it into my tank. My best guess is it came in on some macro when it was even smaller.
About the size of a quarter.
They will eat algae but also sponges. They may also eat coralline algae.
Since I am quite fond of my sponges I am considering rehoming it.
Any takers?
Will trade for something non-sponges eating

Karin, do you think our baby bangaii's would take host to him?

He's still a baby himself - only about the size of a quarter -with spines! lol
They would have to take turns hosting.
I think something with more and longer spines would be better for that purpose
