Description

Lawnmower Blennies are great in the battle of filamentous hair algae as juveniles but may often grow to become biligerent and harass sessile invertebrates as well as clams in your aquarium. May starve in tanks that are not well established or that lack algae for it to graze on. Never keep with seahorses or pipefishes as it will harass and possibly kill them.

Diet

Will consume filamentous algae as well as frozen mysis shrimp and other meaty foods. It is recommended to regularly feed Nori as a marine algae supplement. If underfed it may pick at small Polyped stony corals.
