2 x 1 x 1 mixed reef tank

What in my mind now (future tanks)

4 x 2.5 x 1.5 low profile coral tank

3 x 2.5 x 1.5 low profile reef tank

Decommissioned Tanks :

Am stocks them often. But they arent good algae eater, lazy. Ends up camping for pellets everyday. Quite aggressive in my case as well. I own 3 algae blenny previously.

1 jumped.

1 asked for it. Kept kissing my naso tang that is much bigger. She returned him a kiss of death.

1 got stuck in a pump (jumped)

Get sea urchins or sea hare for better algae job.

Algae blenny. .. Who stocks them regularly? And the specimens tend to be big yes?

I think Algae Blenny frequently found in CF, AM, Irwana and Sealife.

Size usually around 2", though occasionally you may find a 1.5" specimen. Personally have not seen any smaller than 1" specimen in any LFS.
