Algae (lawnmower) Blenny

[Becca]

I am taking my Royal back to the store this weekend, I just cant keep him with the way he is picking on my firefish anyway I wanted to find out what people think of a lawnmower Blenny, I read somewhere that they may bite other fish anyone have first hand experiance with this??

If you do not think this would be a good replacement tell me what you think would be.

Thanks

I've had one and LOVED it! They are "algae" grazers and they do have "Teeth" but I've never seen mine nip at another fish. Make sure you have the proper food or they will slowly starve.

I had one too, I think the Clarkii I used to have picked on him to death But I never saw him pick on any of the other fish at all.

I haven't seen mine mess with fish, shrimp, etc.

Mine is a perfect addition to my reef. He even eats my frozen mush as well as the algae.
