Blenny awol

[sesbalders]

Hey folks

Picked up my first Blenny the other day. Flymo variety!

They were out and about the first day. Seems to have gone awol.

He was an unresearched Father’s Day present.

Is this normal?

Also I’ve got some algae pellets but they are tiny, what’s the best thing to feed them on?

Cheers

Check the floor.

Check the floor.

Hilarious but the tank has a lid

That's good. They are crafty and can fit through the slightest opening. Otherwise, only 2 other options: hiding in your rocks or died and eaten by other fish/CUC.

Found them, weird, stuck to the outlet, grabbed them in the net. Re released into the WC floated back to the bottom, seems ok for now but breathing hard.

Any input other than carpet surfing greatly received

Not a good sign. Healthy fish should be able to get away from the input. Getting stuck to it is a sign they are weak and may not survive long.

Seems to be firing on all 4 now but agreed

This is like a Where's Waldo book Is it right in the middle of the picture?

I've had good results with herbivores using nori, hikari mega marine algae and cool greens flake.
