my tank is about 4 months old now with little algea, but in the beginning i had a lot of green slim algea on the rocks so i bought a lawn mower blenny to help me with this problem. now almost all the algea is gone and he is looking hungry. what is a good supplemental food source i can offer him? thanks.

He shoud be eating the nori sheets or algae sheets that are folded up and on a feeding clip. They also make sinking pellets of algae with vitamins added. My blenny likes these fine. I break them up into small pieces and drop them throughout the tank because he seems to like to hunt them down and carry them around in his mouth.
