I looked at my tank today and the algae on my rocks is basically gone! My blenny goes all over and I am worried he may be out of food. My tank is only 2 1/2 months old. The green slime on my sand does not appeal to him but he scours my fuzzy rocks and seems to poop daily. Today he looks a bit gaunt in the belly.
This is what live aquaria had to say: "The Sailfin/Algae Blenny does best in well-established aquariums with large amounts of natural algae to feed on. The diet can be supplemented with vegetable matter, spirulina, and herbivore preparations."
I have flakes that my fish don't always finish before sinking called Formula One Flakes by Ocean Nutrition, but the ingredients are not herbivore based. I have been feeding as little as possible as I was seeing plenty of algae.
What would be ideal to feed a "lawn mower" an has anyone tried prepared foods with your own blenny?
Thanks
