I was wondering if I could get a lawnmower blenny for my 37 gallon? It sems as though there is some hair algae developing plus they look cool. Do you have to feed them or do they just eat the algae ( I have good 300 watts of VHO)?
Ha i just did a search on one of them and the first page that came up had a link to saltwaterfish.com
Thanx Jon-Paul

If you are going to get a lawnmower blenny you will need a lot of alge, i have heard of them eating alge wafers but i've never seen it being done.

hair algae is the key
but yes pellets, wafers whatever will do good but it really eats hair algae..

Yeah I got an extreme patch of it on a corner of one of my rocks and on my powerheads and one rock is just becoming infested. Anyway I also have the algae waffers to feed him. What if I like ran a tank like 24/7 with one piece of live rock and 2x13watts of PCs on it. And just sorta ripped off the hair algae and fed it to him?
Anyway thanx for the quick replies

Yeahhh. Well I mean I'd have like a 2 gallon Hex with a 13 watt PC (You buy em at like Lowe's or Canadian Tire where I'm from). I might just do that... do they eat PODs?
