Red Lipped Blenny

[TTT]

I have recently purchased a Red Lipped Blenny (Thanks Red Coral) and am not sure what to feed him. I don't really have any visible algae (knock on wood) that he can eat because my Sea Hare has done a great job of keeping the rocks clean. Any suggestions? Here are a few pics.

He will eat mysis and meaty foods but you need to make seaweed or other greens available to him.

get a little piece of pvc or a rock or an algae/seewed clip, buy some nori from the supermarket (unflavored uncooked) put it on the clip or secure to a rock with an elastic band...he'll eat it.

Try putting it on a rock.

if your blenny likes gourmet you could wrap mysis shrimp in nori with an oyster egg in the center, like sushi!

.... mediocre comedy is fun! but in all reality, try nori. ive heard of some fish only liking a certain kind of nori(like red or purple nori)
