Awesome. He is just so cute I didn't want to have to get rid of him. LOL. He is all over the back of my tank now. I don't know how I managed to miss him. Thanks again.

Now that I know what it is. How do I feed It? I have a red scooter Blenny and I feed him brine shrimp along with having a refugium. Thanks.

you don't need to feed it - it wil find enough to eat in the tank on it's own (algae etc).

No need to feed! There will be enough in the tank

if you have stoney coral, get them out they will eat it. in my experience with them they reproduce extremely fast and are a pest at eating calcerous algae (coralline,halimeada). do what you want!
