Lawnmower Blenny

[FishGeek]

I have one and mine isn't as shy as Tony's. He just perches on my cabbage coral and looks out the aquarium right back at me. I have never seen him eat prepared foods before but is always picking off the rocks and glass. He sort of looks like he is banging his head against the glass when he eats. I have to say he is the most entertaining fish to watch in my tank. As for pod population, it seem squite low but I think that is because of my 6 line wrasse rather than my lawn mower blenny. And for him getting along with other fish, Nobody bothers him and he bothers nobody. And as for algae, he seems to eat only the slime or very short algea and not the longer varieties. If you want a very good algea eater, get a team of emerald crabs. they've done wonders for my 72 gal.
