Lawn Mower Blenny VS Starry Blenny

AJsTank · May 25, 2014

I want to throw one in my 400 for a little bit of algae control. I have a big friendly Naso, but they generally don't graze on the rocks and I refuse to put any other Tang in the tank. They are just way too aggressive and messy. I don't have an algae problem, I will sometimes get a small patch of hair algae here and there every once awhile, but nothing major. I've read a few horror stories about them being aggressive and there is a couple threads on them munching on coral here and there as well.

My tank is 100% SPS.

I would like for some of you to share your experience with either. Aggressive, territorial, coral problems?

I have had both and think I enjoy tge stary eyed a bit more. Love the eyebrows lol

I have not seen him mess with any coral, other than constantly resting on my most expensive ones :-)

Not aggressive to my anthias and tangs in the tank either..

But luck of the draw maybe?

Coral's sensei!
