lawnmower blenny

[jond]

I have a new lawnmower blenny and I was wondering what all they eat? I know they eat algea and he picks on just about everything. Is there anything else?

try brine and mysid shrimp. he should take some of those. he will also graze all day on algea from the rocks. there is one brand of food, not sure what that makes a brineshrimp mix with vitamins and calurpa algea that my picasso trigger loves. hth, bo

Our lawnmower eats seaweed selects right off the clip with all the other fish. It's comical to see them form a line and take turns at the seaweed.
HTH,

Thanks for the info. If you think of the brand of food mix, let me know. I will get some seaweed selcets and give it a try. I only have a maroon clown with the blenny right now. (outside of inverts and corals) I just want to make sure he gets enough food.

i didnt think i had any in my freezer but i do. it is brine shrimp plus by formula foods. it has brine shrimp, algea, calurpa algea, and other essential vitamins and minerals fish need in it! oh boy. my triiger loves it. my eel will eat some of it too. my nice fish in my 38 gal semi reef love it too. i have a sunrise pseudochromis, a large tomato clown(4"), and 2 neon gobies. they all love them. does anyone thin i can have one more fish in there? i really love blue-head wrasses. my lfs has a nice yellow juvi, can i get him? later, bo
