Keeping An Algae Blenny

[sophos9]

Hi, one of the fish on my list is an algae blenny... Can anyone give some info on conditions, food and anything else relevant please?

Cheers

Algae blenny's, in my opinion, are very hardy. The only issue is that it eats Algae. If there isn't enough in the tank it will eventually starve. Veggie wafers may help, but that also depends on what type of tank mates it has. Any Tangs will certainly get to the wafers before the blenny can.

feeding them can be a problem, sometimes they will only eat algea

Once they are setted in they tend to eat everything and anything - great fish

If you get one make sure you see it eating in the shop and don't get a thin one
