I've recently noticed a pest called Hydra in my 15g planted tank. They are visible on the glass, some of the plants, and the hardscape.
I've done some research and it seems that many of the Gourami family are often recommended as a good removal source. I've seen 3 Spot/Blue, Sparkling, and Paradise as helpful for this issue. I am wondering if anyone has experience with Honey Gourami working for this as well. The Honey Gourami is a more timid fish than some of the others that have been mentioned and I don't know if they will hunt and remove the Hydra.
I want to get rid of them but would prefer to avoid chemical removal to avoid hurting the plants and invertebrates.
My tank currently has 3 Julii Corydoras, 4 Otocinclus, and 4 Amano shrimp.
Any suggestions and/or personal experience with this would be appreciated.
Thanks
