Q for lawnmower blennie owners TIA

I'm considering actually adding a fish (whoa Darth vader just got a headache) and that seems to be an option.

the question: does anyone have a lawnmower in with any basslets (RG's blackcaps etc), and was/is there any problems between them? They seem like different enough niche occupiers, but what does that mean on paper.

I have a LMB and a RG. No issues at all in a 120.

I also have a LMB and RG in my 58, not even sure if they know about each other. They have been together for over a year with no issues, even when I redid the tank and my RG felt the need to express his dominance over the other fish -- mainly my fairy wrasse.

I keep a LMB and RG in my 90 with no probs at all either. They've been together for about 2 and a half years now.

Lawnmowers would get cranky with anything that in shape or habit looked like another lawnmower; or if attacked; otherwise pretty calm.

excellent. thanks

and y'alls lawnmowers, do they for sure munch on the hair algae type stuff as advertised?

I'm seeing little touches of HA here and there and I know what is next if I don't do something.

I am not sure if mine eats HA or not, because I don't have any.

Now is that because he eats it all, or because I just don't have it, I am not sure.

I've had my LMB for 3+ years now.
