IME Scooter Blennies require a small time commitment to ensure they are fed properly (in addition to having a mature system with natural sources of food). I have kept three SB's over the years and all have readily eaten frozen brine shrimp and bloodworms. However, the problem seems to be in the quantity of these foods the SB obtains in competition with the other inhabitants. Food in my tank rarely hits the bottom. To keep my SB's "fat", I lightly force (it is still visible for the most part) a small portion of frozen bloodworm into the sand (same spot each time). This usually allows the SB to get some before the others gobble it up (especially the CBS). Seems to work for me.
