Now that I have access to a digital camera, there's a chance that I can confirm IDs on my creatures.

Just wanted to make sure that this guy is indeed a Lawnmower Blenny, Salarius Fasciatus.

Allegedly this species is supposed to eat algae. Occasionally he nips at film algae on the glass, but that's all. Otherwise he's a confirmed carnivore :(

i'm having a hard time seeing the face/head but if i had to guess the body and coloration looks like a lawnmower.

supposedly herbivores, mine left kiss marks on the glass, rasped at hair algae, and ate any foods i fed the aquarium, including mysis.

HTH
