    My Lawnmower Blenny recently passed away and I am in need of a good algae-eating fish. I have thought about getting another Lawnmower Blenny, but am now thinking about something different. Any suggestions? The tank is a 90 gallon with 2 clownfish, 2 chromis, 1 scissortail goby, 1 damsel, and 1 madarin.

    go for the one spot foxface over the lo if your going that route, they stay smaller and would be better suited for your 90. my foxface lo eats algae like crazy.
