    I am going to pick up a Starry Blenny on Wednesday. I have a 29g biocube about 2 months of with 4 snails, 1 emerald crab, and to much green hair algae. Will that algae be enough to sustain his diet? Or will I need to go buy more food to put into the tank?
    Im also picking up a cleaner shrimp.
    Thanks

    Get some nori to supplement. Hermit crabs will help knock it down. You may need to rotate the hermits in and out mine seem to leave the bushy stuff after a little while.
