Hi all,
So I picked up a lawn mower blenny on Sunday this week and have him in my QT right now. How long should I QT him? Also I don't think there will be any issues with tank mates but figured I would check before he goes in the tank. Right now I have a mated pair of clowns, a diamond spot goby and a filefish. I got the blenny to work on my hair algae that I've been dealing with. Thoughts on this? Thanks all. Tank is a 60 gallon cube.

Does he eat anything other than algae? The problem with QT'ing a lawnmower is keeping it fed. If he eats pellets or something, then normal protocol for QT can apply (ex 2 weeks) but if not, i would keep an eye out for any irregularities and get him in the DT within a few days, week max. But this is my opinion and ill leave judgement to you.

I have nori in the QT with him and it slowly disappears. I hope he's eating it and its not just dissolving
