What to feed Lawn Mower Blenny during QT?

My blenny eats anything just about, he will even swim up and eat mysis in the water column during feeding with the other fish. Loves pellets and will seek them as they hit the sand as well. I purchased algae sheets but never needed them.. he has put on weight since we first got him. I wouldn’t worry too much. It sounds like you are prepared

This is my little fella. His name is Riddick because he gets “rid” of all the algae. I hope he makes it thru QT.
 
My first LMB ate anything I gave him - pellets, Mysis, whatever. My more recent one was a big fella and he mostly got frozen Mysis etc along with the DTs - the QT just got a bit of what we fed the DTs. I did supplement it with some Nori however and after a day he cottoned onto that and was happy to munch away. I found giving him some Nori every few days along with the daily frozen was plenty for him. He still eats the Nori I give to the Tangs every week or so.
 
Update - my LMB started eating in QT! Woohoo! I attached a small piece of seaweed on a clip to the bottom of the tank, and he started nibbling on it. Whew! :)
 
Only updating because I saw the thread. Mine started eating the Hikari Herb pellets and now I have some algae growth from the uglies in my display to supplement. I thought he was a gonner!
Glad your LMB is doing ok!
