Howdy all,

I just found my algae blenny stuck to my weir for overflow. He's progressively getting skinnier and skinnier. I continue to add nori to the tank every other day, he nibbles at some & the other winds up in my filter media cup. He's constantly picking at the rocks & glass, but I guess he isn't eating enough? He's practically paper thin - definitely doesn't seem good.

Is there anything I can do?


He doesn't go after mysis or any frozen food....
 
Commenting to follow. My blenny also eats nothing but nibbles at glass and rocks
 
My bobby boy passed away.

I will avoid getting another algae blenny as it seems like unless you can train them to eat strictly nuri they won't make it.
