Question Lawnmower Blenny? Help Quickly.....
I'm still having trouble getting rid of the algae in my tank. I'm begining to think the red algae is turning into hair algae. But anyways, my LFS recommend a lawnmower blenny, if it is hair algae. My question is if it's not hair algae what are the chances of him eating it anyways? And are they worth keeping in a tank once the algae is gone?
