Watch him though when he runs out of hair algae...Mine wont eat nori strips

but he does love live brine shrimp....Awesome buy SHOG! you will love him!

He's cute in an ugly sort of way... very cool though, I want to get one of those. What other fish do you have in the tank? do any of your fish bother him?

SomeHairyOldGuy · 02-25-2002, 01:35 PM

Man this guy is a algea eatn mad man! He has been in there since Friday night. Right now he is really small. I would say around 2". The other fish in the tank are a Blue Devil Damsel, Convict Damsel, Diadema Dottyback, Coral Beauty, Green Spotted Mandrian. The Blue Devil by far has been the meanest. Well for the time being lets just say the JD doesn't have any friends!

How does he get along with the other blenny?

SomeHairyOldGuy · 02-25-2002, 05:06 PM

The Mandrian seems to care less if JD is there or not.

SHOG,
You gotta love these guys! Lots of personality and the greatest eyes in the Fish World, with "eyelashes", yet!

"LB" is a cool guy!

Does he swim out in the open a lot? or does he hide most of the day?

How much did you pay for him? I want one!!!!!!!!!

saltymp · 02-26-2002, 10:53 AM

Hairy,

Good luck with J.D., He should be fine in the tank. It is so cool that a little lawnmower can eat so much algae. It's pretty funny watching them swim and then rest on a rock. You know the lawnmowers actually look like hairy old men!!!!

FishDaddy · 02-26-2002, 10:54 AM

Brian,
Mine is "out front" most all the time. LB generally rests on the rocks, pecking at algae, but can move like a rocket when he wants to.
I paid $18 for mine!!!

Since I put him in Friday night he has been out in the open more and more each day. He takes refuge under my polyps when he feels threatened and boy can he turn the jets on when needed. He "hops" around chomping on algea. He is really fun to watch. I paid $27 for mine.

Barry N. · 02-26-2002, 12:12 PM

Ya I love these guys. Mine will eat from my fingers.

PerryinCA · 02-26-2002, 03:40 PM

Great buy! I love those guys. They just have a ton of personality, and eat bothersome derbesia to boot!

They should have no problem with any Dragonets (which a Mandarin is)

**scubadude** · 02-26-2002, 04:03 PM

Heres my Guy!

And if memory serves me correct I think I paid $22 for him...well worth every penny!

FishKid · 02-26-2002, 04:29 PM
