I have a lawnmower and he has quit a personality. Eats alot of algae. Kind of shy. Interesting to watch when he's active. For some reason he doesn't like my Royal Gramma. He was the 1st addition to my tank and has been a hardy good fish. Any other info you lookin for just let me know.

very hardy fish, doesnt care for the kole tang that much since it picks on him quite a bit but he annoys him back. they eat a lot of alge but its good to try and suppliment its diet with other things. some people have them starve to death. you could try pellet food containing alge, dried nori, alge disc. the kole and lawnmower fight over the nori they love it. they are a reefsafe and peaceful fish and i think one of the coolest fish in the tank. ours seems to be a neat freak cleans small pieces of rock out of his hole and any snails that get in there also. picks them up, carries them accross the tank and spits them out.

I LOVE THAT GUY! He is very very hardy. eats alot of algea. hides alot. he HATES my koles tang (yellow eyed tang) soooo much. my tang will chase him all around. and then the blenny will hide. i think the tang thinks that the blenny is eating his algea. but if you decide that after 2 weeks you dont like him its almost immposible to get him out if there is lr in the tank.
